Other, if it's 30, put the car in 3rd before the camera, if it's 60 or 70 put it in 4th. I never bang the brakes on for speed camerasThe court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

There are a couple of roads where I do that becuse the council changed the speed limit four times in one year! Even the SAT Nav download can't keep up.Originally posted by TonyEnglish View Post
What bugs me about speed camers is when you have a road with a 40 limit and a speed camera, the number of people who slow down to 27 to go through it becuase they don't know the limit for the road."A people that elect corrupt politicians, imposters, thieves and traitors are not victims, but accomplices," George OrwellComment

Doesn't work too well if your car pull's a ton in third and hits the limit in fourth....

Excellent, my Passat will do 170mph...Originally posted by Moscow Mule View PostDoesn't work with the new cameras, only the old ones which took two pictures and hence two flashes. You also have to be traveling over 150mph (ish) for the second flash not to register.
I can't watch this here, but I think it's the one.

I reckon you can de-restrict it for a few pennies. I had a Honda that was restricted, it cost me £120 IIRC..Originally posted by Ardesco View PostDoesn't work too well if your car pull's a ton in third and hits the limit in fourth....

You are assuming it is deliberate. Never attribute to ........... no you wouldn't get the ref anyway.Originally posted by Troll View PostNo I'm just reponding to an illegal move - Highway Code states
you pair of knobs
Even if the other driver is behaving like a complete nob it still does not give you the right to drive in a dangerous manner. As someone else said the highway code requires other things of you and selective reading is not a good idea.
Remove your ego from the driving seat and learn about patience and good manners.I am not qualified to give the above advice!
