Oh deary me! I bet he thought that it would never happen to him and he was doing a great service to those who would like to travel however fast they want with impunity.

Similar to the e-bay "I will take your points" thread which was posted here yesterday! Foolish or what

how exactly? cameras make money which means people speed. The fact they did it in the knowledge they were immune from prosecution somehow makes it all the more dangerous I suppose, jesus h christ

Be very, very careful when you do things like that Ghost; you'll get accused of being Bogush.

In two minds on the morality here but.....

33 months sentence for a non-violent no-victim crime.

Shite, you can rape, murder and pillage and get less than that.

That is unquestionably out of order. Take the proceeds from the crime by all means.

But 33 months.

Fruck right off.

Selling false names and addresses?

How much does one pay for:

Iver Biggun
Buck House
1 The Mall
London

Christ there are some really thick people with no ingenuity out there...

It's not exactly difficult to work out how it's done is it? (Rent a mail drop address...?)

...and yes, the sanctimonious clap trap doesn't convince anyone (surely). I'm surprised there hasn't been an estimate of lives saved over the next year!

They mentioned the two deaths in the story (how emotive), but did not actually attribute the cause of that accident to a speeding driver with a 'get out of jail free card'. I'm sure pro-camera groups would have made a big song and dance about it if it was the case.

Does anyone actually know?

I used to do that before 1970......putting the law to one side for a moment, what's wrong with that, then?

Your ancestors used to smile at me as I wafted past at 120......

Bumstorm? Who is he? Like Canute, he will be a figure of ridicule! Remember! Once, 8 mph was regarded as "Furious driving," Wow! These car things are dangerous! Better uninvent them!
