Thats pretty interesting Will. I still think whomever invented the speed camera should be horsewhipped though.

 

One of my favourite Pictures:-

 

That picture is pretty badass - I do however not understand what the Spiderman dude is doing.

 

Me neither, but I like to think he's going to position himself in front of the lens, so that when his mate speeds past, all they'll get is a picture of his hairy ***

 

he might be trying to make it more top heavy so it will fall over easier

 

Nevermind Nate, you'll get it eventually......


They fitted a new speed camera on our favourite stretch of road a week ago. Over the weekend, we see someone has used a pipe cutter and removed the camera, and placed it in a very wet storm drain. The police haven't found it yet.
It is reported to have had over 20 9mm holes in it...............
We'll see if they fit another one........
Just another drive by casualty

 

why not just mount your license plate underneath your rear seat? like on an angle. technically its still visible. o and i believe yellow lights last 1 second for 10 mph .

 

Hah, we can go with that Hawk. Makes sense to me.

I've gotten two speeding tickets in my trucks in DC. Now I know where all the speed cameras area, so I make sure to slow down.

 

When I was driving in France there would be signs that read "Speed Camera Ahead #km". I guess in France they need to point them out.

 

I went back to the UK in the late '90s to show my olds the grandkids etc. Driving the hire car around looking for their place (they'd moved since I left) I kept seeing flashes of light everywhere I went. Funny, I thought, where's the thunder?? What a bumpkin I'd turned into and, clearly, the powers that rip us off had been mighty busy in the ten years I'd been gone.

I must have tripped half a dozen but never heard anything about it. Either the cameras weren't loaded or it's just too hard to persue the $ overseas.

My brother in law clued me up to a couple of fixed cameras on the main drag into the nearest city. All the traffic was doing 100mph ish then everybody would slow down to 70 for a few hundred metres, then straight back up to the ton...what a joke!

Pete, I can't see a fixed camera lasting too long around here either...Good shooting, by the way.
