Caught by scamera van

[Engelberger]

As can be seen this veery important road that turns from a 40mph to 30mph is purely there for safety and not in any way there to raise money.

I apologise to all the small woodland creatures I put at risk and I wait with anticipation from the donut eaters my punishment for being so callous while following a line of traffic. In fairness I didn't realise it went from a 40 to a 30 and then back to a NSL as I was just following the car in front. My guess is that champagne corks were popping when they saw how many cars were caught.

Although it is likely that a plastic was operating the camera the resource going into all this demonstrates that we need more cuts to police funding.

So you weren't paying attention and were relying on other road users to determine your speed - nice work.

[LosingGrip]

Love how it's someone else fault rather than yours for not keeping to the speed limit.

This won't end well...

[Sporky]

I've heard people suggest that speed cameras are a tax on the stupid.

Trying to be amusing / ironic. Fail.
Speed cameras=easy target.
PCSO=easy target.
Misuse of Champagne=criminal.

[Who me ?]

It's all about the money, honey.

You missed the 'funny' misspelling with "scamera" usually found in the Daily Wail comment section, oh how my sides split with laughter.

I would like however to establish exactly why there is a change of limit given that it appears to be a non-built up area unless there is a mega estate with say a school around that corner.
If you were in a queue is it possible that every car that was speeding was snapped?

[LosingGrip]

That camera location looks fairly sensible to me as well. Double white lines, sharpe right hand bend coming up.

Dead straight road, large white van with reflective markings.....have you visited an opticians lately?

The sign on the right (that you can see the back of) looks like a place name to me.

Were you exiting a village op ?

Also, if you were following a car in front how come there's nothing in front of you in the picture ?

so what's the scam? looks like you were paying so little attention not only did you not know the speed limit, you didn't see the bloody big van with hi-viz on the back.

Well, if he did - just on the off chance that he'd been blobbed - and in view of everything that has been said on this thread - the mental is strong with this one.

[Engelberger]

So far so expected. Keep em coming.

Nasty bend at the end there you can see why they want to keep things "safe".

Don't those camera's work from a mile away? Eyesight would need to be top drawer.

But no chevrons.

In a line of traffic even if everyone else thought it was 40 I’d be amazed if you were able to go fast enough to worry the speed camera.
