Well, it had to happen sooner or later.

36 in a 30 bleedin' mph limit. Some gimp in a van pointing his camera at me. I was only going for a Christmas tree, FFS.

I wouldn't mind, but this was literally 10 yards away from where the road goes from 30 to NSL - its at Kilsby, for the VMAX-ers who come for breakfast. Seems all of our village has been clobbered by this communist at some point.

60 cheques for a pound to be written to the fascist bullies at Northants "Safety" Camera Partnership. Wankers.



Disgusted of Daventry.

I take it that there are no issues over identity?

Sorry to hear it by the way. I'm in Kettering and I'm fed-up with the local plods priorities.

Peasant scum of a stinking orc whore.

We know this road all too well and had no idea it was a test bed for rancid Islingtonite dribbling.

You evil bastard.

I'm sure this event has taught you the lesson you so richly deserve.

One genuinely despairs.

Only goes to re inforce my point that this is a complete and utter waste of time and resources.

Bad luck Greg but we all seem to be 'fair' game in this totally pointless exercise.

Dont let it get you down mate...............there are people out there doing a good job.

Tony, please don't think in any way this was directed at ANY of the BiB on this forum mate.

I'm just ed off at the utter lack of discretion that these do-gooders show at these sort of minor misdemeanours.

Not happy!

Merry Xmas Tony

My 3 points are for 36mph in a 30mph limit... at 2am... on a deserted dual carriageway.

It doesn't make you slow down, it just makes you angry.

It was Groundhog Day in the pub last night in the village.

"Alright Greg?"
"Not really, no. Got my first NiP in 12 years yesterday"
"Let me guess....was it the van at Kilsby? That was where I got my points."

Its almost a badge of honour.

Dont suppose anyone could define the word "Caltrop" for me, could they?

I'm sure I heard someone mentioning that vans tended to park up in the same place all the time, and usually in a place where Joe Public wouldnt normally park, and that word sprang to mind.
Cant seem to see a connection, but

Greg,

I understand your frustration and as you know, i feel the same way. When i hear stories like this it undermines the good work that the rest of us do on a daily basis.

Its certainly not a job that i could do or indeed want to do.

Have a good one mate.

I might have dreamed this, but isn't there a rule where they
can't issue a speeding ticket within so many [ 100 ? ] yards of
a speed limit change ?

Might be worth looking into.

I'd be tempted to go to court for the sheer hell of it.

If you go to court, the partnership don't get your wonga.

Also, consider settling the bill with £60 in 1p pieces.

I've already ordered a second cheque book at the cash point earlier this morn.

They will be getting at least 60 cheques for £1.

Never been to court though, and as I'm an alleged criminal, is it worth going in front of the beak?

Problem with going to court is you run the risk of extra points or a heavier fine plus costs for being a cheeky git and not taking your punishment like a heinous criminal/menace to society should.

First thing to do is to use all diligence in trying to establish who was driving by getting a photograph. Make the s work for there money....

A stealth Veyron. Now that would be sweet.
