Good. The enforcement agencies need to get their procedures correct.

That sounds like a comment from someone who's just recently had to pay one! :bigsmile:

As it happens I've never "Touch Wood" had a speeding Ticket. I'm a good boy me.:amuse: I never break the speed limit.


When there's camera's around anyway.

I have been stopped for speeding but the copper couldn't keep up long enough to record my speed so he couldn't give me a ticket he just gave me a good telling off and a producer.

That's fair enough. At least he didn't try to fabricate evidence. It's good policing, really.

" Supt Steve Barry said a "simple mistake" had led to officers not getting the camera signed off correctly.

"The reality is that speed does kill and it's a real significant factor in the number of people who are killed or seriously injured on the roads." "

How true dat!

I mean, considering that in their haste to install the camera the overlooked procedure.

And the unnecessary SPEED displayed by them, KILLED their dreams of making a fat profit, " A total of £12,000 will be refunded and the penalty points scrapped."

There IS a God!
