Why post on this forum?

This should be a sticky mods.
1) Don't complain about speed limits on this forum
If you complain because you've been caught then you are just b
hing and need to MTFU. Don't do the crime if you can't do the time.
If you complain and you've never been caught then what are you bhing about? If people didn't want speed limits they wouldn't have voted for those politicians.
Don't complain that the police officer is earning any money out of it. He only books you for 3mph over the limit because he doesn't have any latitude and that he's protecting you from yourself. However he is nothing like a speed camera as he can use his years of judgement.
Don't complain the police prefer to be holding laser cameras than catching burglars. After all Burglars don't kill people and speeders do.
All speed cameras are well sited and if you go past them without slowing then you deserve the booking because that level of inattention means you are minutes away from running over a child.
You can't argue with the law as it stands because everyone voted for it and if you disagree you can go live in another country. You can't have a discussion about the rights or wrongs of a law, because once the law it made it is self evident, and questioning it is irrelevant regardless of this being a discussion forum, or it being a nonsense law.
If I give the impression I am in law enforcement, then accept it as fact and don't argue with me cos I've seen too many fatalities on the road.
If I give the impression I am in traffic management, then accept it as fact and don't argue with me cos I've very clever, and the preponderance of nonsensical signs all over the place is not rubbish but part of a greater design normal drivers could not possibly understand.

I think that covers most of the stock answers given over the last ten years or so, and if you read them it may well save a lot of time on your part when you post expecting sympathy, and would probably save half the traffic on this site.
Problem is that for every normal driver on this forum expecting a realistic response there are a bucket load of internet warriors and pretend police who will pick from one of the above. They almost fall over each other to be the first to use them as put downs.
So my advice is that if you think your post could possibly be answered by one of the above stock answers then don't bother to post. The answers you are looking for are already here.
If its sympathy you want then go find a friend.
