police cameras

[bsa-bill]

Hold on a mo, I nearly replied to a post (no names no pack drill) that is a whole lot more negative than my experience of driving/riding for 55 years here in the UK, then I remembered the little flag.
We are talking about a whole lot of different police forces over the globe so possible apples and oranges.
I have no problem with UK speed cameras. and speed restrictions are well known or should be and marked with big signs

I must admit this gets me angry  in the UK. We keep calling speed enforcement and parking enforcement taxes. They are not they are the enforcement of the current law. The answer has I have said before is simple, obey the law and they make no money. I will add to that, if you don’t like the law get it changed so if you think a speed limit is wrong the campaign to change it do not campaign to stop its enforcement. I accept both campaigns would probably be fruitless but at least lets get the target right. Unless we are arguing for all roads to have no limit at all  .

History is peppered with bad, sometimes horrible, sometimes despicable laws. Speeds limits, in theory, are not among them, however, in their enforcement a little tolerance in mechanical as well as human terms needs to be considered. For example, I don't believe citing for 1 MPH over a 35 MPH limit is adequate tolerance in either sense of the word. To me, 10% seems fair. (Not necessarily fun, but fair.)

I propose that in the interest of public safety, everyone should have to drive a 36hp VW bus. They can't go fast, and sitting in front of the axle with nothing but a thin piece of sheet metal between you and the car in front of you discourages tailgating.  Of course, motorcycles should be banned completely, as people get hurt riding bikes. And horses, too. They're even more dangerous.

I get it - they both kick back

and speaking of horses and cameras here's a guy taking huge chances with his lugs

But you'd really have to be police to mount a silly top case on the back of a Hayabusa...

the only damaged one I know about in this area is in the rural area of Parbold round the first corner on what becomes a steep hill ,sited just before the normal rider driver would slow anyway due to the hill dropping away steeply ,the locals have takedn a dislike to it and very often you'll see it decapitated ,they use a chain saw and clip it off . It appears to be a battle of wills , the council replace ,the locals behead it and so on , the locals seem to have the upper hand Mr Plod hasn't found any culprits
