Today I drove from the South Coast to Glasgow. I wasn't in a rush, but it took seven hours, with breaks....

I didn't see a single police car all the way up.

I Did see two cars race past at i'd guess 130 mph plus on the A74m, clearly having some fun on near empty road.

Seems a bit mad to me that the cuts in spending result in no police presence on the roads

Might have been a few unmarked around the Lakes, but perhaps that's more of a summer time affair when the bikers are out.

Any camera vans on the bridges? I'd be amazed if you didn't pass one of those on the M74 tbh, but I have been driving the M6 - M74 from the end of the M61 all the way up to Glasgow for nearly ten years now and you seldom see marked cars in my experience, but the unmarked ones are often about - seen plenty of folk pulled over by coppers driving an unmarked BMW, Volvo or Audi.
