Reply to: When you see a speed camera

No I'm just reponding to an illegal move - Highway Code states
you pair of knobs

You are assuming it is deliberate. Never attribute to ........... no you wouldn't get the ref anyway.

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.

Doesn't work too well if your car pull's a ton in third and hits the limit in fourth.... (As found out at Silverstone which was quite gutting as I had two more gears left ).

Damn Japanese and their 120MPH limits

I reckon you can de-restrict it for a few pennies. I had a Honda that was restricted, it cost me £120 IIRC..

Doesn'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.

Excellent, my Passat will do 170mph...

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 cameras

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.

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.

Yay!

Just 20 more dull, meaningless, bile-filled dribblings of an inadequate dolt who is a devoted slave to Madam Palm and her five daughters.

I can't wait

Where does it say that if the person you are overtaking speeds up you should pull in and tail gate them acting like a complete knob? My guess is that it is only found in the copy you have, written in biro in your spazzy handwriting

now you're being surreal

The Highway Code also states (rule 147) that "You should... try to be understanding if other road users cause problems... be patient; remember that anyone can make a mistake... not allow yourself to become agitated or involved if someone is behaving badly on the road. This will only make the situation worse."

....another knob joins the conversation
