Always the ultimate mark of a limited intellect when someone can't express themselves without resorting to swearing. And over something so trivial too.

"A man has been fined and given three penalty points on his driving licence after driving a car with another car strapped to its roof.

Glyndwr Wyn Richards, from Llanfarian in Ceredigion, was convicted of using a motor vehicle in a condition likely to cause injury at Aberystwyth Magistrates' Court on Wednesday.

Richards, 51, was seen driving the car through Aberystwyth to a scrap yard on the Glan yr Afon Industrial Estate in March.

He was fined £80 and told to pay a victim surcharge of £30 and costs of £85 after pleading guilty to the offence."

Slightly off topic;-

FFS, I was recently fined £100 and given 3 points for driving at 71 mph on a clear straight dual carriageway in Wales. Which was the more grave offence?

Time to convert to being a member of the travelling community (that doesn't work or claim benefits). You might have got away with 3 points, £40 fine, with £85 costs and £30 surcharge. Also get away with nothing for failing to turn up and previously denying being the driver.

It's a shame the roof of the car didn't fold in when they put it on there... What an unbelievable plum.

What? Was it a 60 limit? Or lower?

I'm not feeling disrespected. I was just trying to make sense of it. I've played it more than once. The headlamps from the motorcycle appear quite a bit before the bend tightens. They had vision through the corner.

Do you think the motorcyclist was just going to fast for the bend?

Biker was going far too fast for the bend and would have struggled to stay upright whatever he did once he arrived at the point where we first see him.

He ‘might’ have just about managed to make it round with very aggressive countersteering but instead he panicked and braked, so lost the front wheel grip.

His speed doesn't look that high. The bike is barely leaning when it comes into sight but his left foot is nearly down. I would guess that he's lost confidence (got a wriggle from something or just gave up) and ran wide. When he sees the car, he grabs a big fistful of brake and goes straight down.

Looking at it frame by frame, I think he's maybe felt the front washing out earlier in the corner and tried to sort it out... From the first frames as he appears on the video he's already got his leg dangling with the bike pretty much upright, with no change of lean angle.

Once he sees the car I think he grabs a fistful of front brake and it immediately overwhelms the front tyre and goes down.

60 mph; an extra urban dual carrigeway, without nearby junctions, or any other hazard; no reason whatsoever for it not to be NSL (if one accepts the need for such), other than to facilitate revenue collection by camera van.

[Lemming Train]

Someone said recently that the A55 has been reduced to 60mph from NSL but despite being a regular along there some years ago for family visits I'm not been along it recently. Any truth in the reduction?

imo the French firm is more in the wrong as he could have just eased off the accelerator for a second and made the pass easier but the drinks warehouse one could of also just stayed behind as he wasn't able to go any quicker.

Get used to it. That's what it'll be like all the time once speed limited cars become commonplace. As you can see, vans are increasingly being limited to the same speed as trucks now, cars will be next, albeit at 70mph.

The truck isn't French btw. It's an unaccompanied ferry trailer being pulled by an English subby. Regardless, a considerate driver would have eased off in that situation to facilitate the van's overtake.

My Hungarian lorry driver brother-in-law, has just been given a six month ban for that; over there lorries are confined to lane one. Their traffic cops also look out for, and nick, anyone failing to correctly indicate.
A lot to be said for knowledgeable cops on the roads, ticketing inconsiderate and dangerous drivers, rather than the taxation cameras which we have.

I'm sure someone will be along soon to tell you to stop complaining, as their journey was more important than yours

Was it you overtaking that tractor + loads of cars that made it to the Daily Fail?

[Glenn63]

I drive lorries myself and I bet the lorry driver is a tit in this instance, more than likely slowed on a hill, van started to overtake, they reached the brow of hill and wagon got back up to speed and just stayed there. See it all the time and have had to done to myself and don’t know why some truckers get so defensive about it, I just ease off the cruise (even if a truck is overtaking at a decent speed) usually only takes 10 seconds or so and the truck be past then back on, simple.

Assuming the limit for you was 70mph and the limit for them was 60mph, you would have had to have been stuck behind them for a whole hour, or 60 miles, for it to add ten minutes to your journey time.

If they were doing even as low as 50mph you would still have needed to follow them for 29 miles, or over half an hour.
