BIB Op to catch N. Yorks drivers
Discussion
Apparently the BIB are starting operation Helical in North Yorks today:
I just hope that they are equally harsh with the numpty brigade that insist in clogging the roads by driving along perfectly decent roads at 30 mph.
At least we still don't have speed cameras.
So hey, lets be careful out there.
Operation Helical has today been launched by North Yorkshire police.
Intensive police action will target dangerous, careless and irresponsible road users, and officers warn that they will take firm, decisive action against offenders.
These include drivers using a hand-held phone while driving, crossing double white lines, and speeding. Drivers and passengers not wearing seatbelts are also a priority target.
Expert analysis has highlighted 39 stretches of road with poor accident records, but Deputy Chief Constable Adam Briggs warns: “It is not roads that cause accidents – it is drivers and riders. We will be concentrating resources on those 39 identified routes and we will act positively against anyone we see endangering other road users.”
The reality is that the police will employ a zero-tolerance approach and even those travelling just 2 or 3 mph over the limit will be targeted. For the first time in NY, the police will be using:-
· Autovision. This gives irrefutable evidence of speeding individuals and which can be deployed on any road at any time. Autovision records the speed and registration number of passing vehicles – together with a picture of the driver’s face.
· Automatic Number Plate Recognition system to read and check the numbers of passing vehicles. Computers instantly check whether each vehicle is taxed or insured and its owner has a driving licence; the vehicles may be seized.

So from your list then most roads in North Yorkshire then !!!!!!!!!!!! Well the ones that people use anyway. I hate these holier than thou t***ers who have nothing better to do than target petty incidents. Do we not have more serious problemns to deal with in this country? Rant over and out.
P.S. If you hadn't already guessed, yes I did receive a 3 points £60 notice last week - 38 in a 30 - b*&%ards. Still at least I wasn't selling heroin from the boot of my car eh? Then I may have got a trip to the Caribbean.

all the roads I use day in day out 
BUT we do seem to have had a large amount of deaths on our local roads lately, more than usual ... most either motorcyclists or groups of 'kids' 4 up & wrapping themselves around trees ..... which is a shame as North Yorkshire was decreasing the number of fatalities recently
