Thought people in here might be interested in a few piccies I took this morning.

Hopefully there'll be a few people 60 quid better off than they could have been as I flagged them down whilst on my photography assignment.

I'd be interested to hear what we all think about this one. As you can see, visibility doesn't seem to be a high point. But if people can't react quick enough to get down below the limit, then would they be able to react to a real hazard in these conditions?

I put the debate to the floor.

My view would be that if you get nicked doing more than 30 through Long Crendon then you get what's coming to you. Rich...

At least they attempt to put signs up before the van. They don't bother doing that round here so first you know of it is when you see the van

signs are good. placement could be better.

I don't like scameras, but at least this one's on a village location which you really shouldn't be speeding through unless you really are a careless driver. The signs are amusing and I'm not sure I'd spot the one which had slipped to the ground among all the other debris and road furniture.

I assume he is scamering people approaching from the North and possibly those who have passed him heading North and are too blind to notice.
