    Speeding in 30 Zones is by far the worst offence. So i tend not to speed there. I totally agree with cameras in these places.

    Doing 90 on an empty motorway is not unsafe in any way (unless the driver is crap).

    I completely agree about speed killing, and in a pedestrian built up area im very very very careful.

    BUT - i completely object to coppers with guns, white vans parked over bridges and gatso's on the M25 every 300 meters that dont make the traffic any safer ... but line the pockets of others who then mis-spend the money.

    Are the roads safer now there are speed cameras everywhere compared to before? Thats what im interested about.

    Re: Speed Cameras

    all cars are different, so they are talking out there arses on that one, i have to use 3rd gear for around town, not for the shite reasons they give mind :lol:

    if there are no deaths in a 3 year period, are they then "not allowed" to use that site again??


    sounds like an elaborate way of saying "we will put them where the fuck we want sunshine"

    IIRC this was discussed on scoobynet a while back and the general response was

    NOPE!

    Instead of complaining all the time about getting points for speeding peopl should stop fucking speeding. Don't let them fine you and have money that you don't think is spent well. If they're not getting your money does it matter what they're doing with it?

    If I have a pound for every complaint about speed cameras from my customers at work I'd be a very rich lady. Does my head in :evil:

    I used to say that before i bought a car and realised just how easy it is to go over 30 without knowing it .... and with speed cameras its not like you can learn your lesson and get on with things - theres 2-3 points on your license, a fine, an increase in your insurance and a whole lot of hassle to go through.

    :up: You speaketh the truth. Speeding is the sole preserve of utter arseholes with something to prove!
    Everyone must have seen that advert by now, with that annoying kid bleating on about getting hit at 40mph and maybe dying and all that shit

    Funny that...

    if it was someone getting a criminal record for being found with a couple of disco biscuits on them - something tells me people would have a different take on it all.

    .... thats ILLEGAL, and im sure leah bett's parents would have a similar take on it all.

    a 'fucking jerkoff' - i think you need to stop watching late night american tv son.

    Both speeding and drugs cost lives - its just interesting to see how much peoples attitudes to those seems to vary.

    I suppose this is the clever part where you point out that speeding can kill others, but drugs are a personal choice? .....

    Lets see if you can have a debate without resorting to turning on the person making the point - Or are you UNABLE to present a decent argument?

    i cant even be arsed to argue with you. you obviously went to special school. your fatha was speeding about 30% over the limit, near a fucking hospital for fucks sake, and you think hes been hard done by :rolleyes:
    your attitude that speed cameras arent there to reduce accidents, and are just a source of income is ludicrous
    I just hope its yourself that you kill, and not an innocent bystander
