Send them to where uranium mines are then - costs of travel will be deducated from their pay.

Presumably they pay your Giro directly into your bank account, so you dont have any deadlines that involve you having to travel to the bank either.

BOOM ! BOOM!

And they pick on Jaguar drivers, Dodgy!

especially second hand ones

One of the nice things about getting to my position is I feel no need to rush to meetings with clients.

they only speed because they are poor.

So that is why all those people buy veyrons then?

I now look down on the plebs who speed with a mixture of sadness and amusement: they only speed because they are poor.

If I want to drive too fast, I go to a race track.

German drivers are more disciplined drivers don't you find?

Also probably better roads and better cars.

You've clearly never driven on a German Autobahn.

have always wondered, the huge amount of speed cameras on M42 (east birmingham) around the airport, do they work? tomtom says its a 50mph camera, have seen hundreds of people go through them doing 75/80..

For over a year, they were inactive because the camera model was not type approved. However, they now are, and were active just before christmas..... keep your eye on the camera backs on the opposite carriageway .....

I don't think we've got any.

Or send them down the salt mines?

My argument is simply that a speed limit is not a true arbiter of whether driving is dangerous or not, and you have just proved my point.

I agree with that. However exceeding speed limit is a good indication of disregard to law from that person. Perhaps they should switch away from 3 points + £60 to 1 week of hard labour and fine of 1% gross annual earnings: the person in question also gets checked for any tax irregularities.
