I approached a Camera, got flashed, and got the letter, had to do a speed awareness course, which I quite enjoyed actually  :y.

Likewise - quite a good course

Ah I've heard about your little map of Tasmania and as for following my nose, she's very fragrant so that's the easy bit!  :y 

What I could do with a bit of advice from a man of the world such as yourself Lovelength, is how to slip past the man mountain that is her scowling steroidal boyfriend....  :-\

Yeah, to cover both sides of the road. However, look at road sensors, you'll see it only gets oncoming traffic (depending which way its pointing :)

Most of the cameras round here flash away all day. Just about everyone knows they are not in use.


Agreed
Humberside plod only have 4 camera's but about 15 sites.
They all flash but not all have a camera in to take the picky  ;)
Do a drive by (at the legal limit  ;D) and have a look if your up that way  :y

3points and 60quid :( >:( I got done for exceeding 30mph I was clocked at 35mph, first offence since  1965, , took the points..or for £80 you can do the course, but the insurance companies still want to know if you have been involved in a speeding incident.

A guy I work with has just got a ticket for 35mph in a 30mph. They were catching drivers as they left a 30mph zone, as they slightly speed up in the final few metres to enter the national speed zone. Still no defence in the eyes of the law though.
I thought it was still ten percent + 2, so 35mph would just be in, but obviously that has changed.  :-\

The 10% + 2 is a guideline,not law.Some areas ignore it at times.Particularily if they need to generate some revenue.
Us motorists are helpless cash cows after all.I cant be arsed fighting it any more tbh,I tend to stick to the speed limits these days.
I really am getting old. ;D
