i stand corrected howard

but they have not reached the swamps yet....

(They just put a normal gatso in the average cameras.... one on each carriageway in cambridgeshire....)

last time i was proceeding in an orderly fashion back home, i found out what it was like to be caught by the papperazzi - i thought the camera was going to melt the way the flash was going off....

I thought the average speed cameras were usually SPECS not Gatsos.

Speedspike appears to be a new average speed camera system - with potentially a very wide net

Later on he was coming back along the A303 and........ yep, same copper, other side of the road.

Funnily enough it was the A303 where I got nabbed as well

I once had a long and scary journey along that road in a van with a gang of cockneys looking for skinheads to fight

speedspike cameras are the next generation camera eh.
I see they are going to be mounted high and not really easy to spot like the ones painted yellow.
Does that mean the government don't want you to speed, or because they are hard to spot they do.
More money for the government

to explain for the hard of understanding

A14 in cambridgeshire is mile after mile of average speed cameras - literally.... however, just to keep their hands in, the lovely speed camera partnership, or bastards as they are commonly called , have chosen to break the monotony of these average speed cameras by actually having the cheek to have one gatso on each carriageway to catch the unwary speeder......

Just learn where they are on your regular routes and be observant on those you don't and you should never have a problem with the things.
Never collected a single point so far.

Not sure whether I did in Italy on hols ..... wasn't so familiar with what I was looking out for to begin with - though hopefully OK

Why are there so few fixed cameras on the motorways etc ?

New generation GATSOs are now multi function,
ANPR linked/ insurance database linked
High definition digital ( they dont run out of film )
can cover up to 5 motorway lanes,

here in the rainy county of Avon we were lucky enough to get the first digital cash cameras,
here in the rainy county of Avon we also have the highest number of attacks on cash cameras in the UK
Good work you naughty pixies !

Forgot to add GPS linked so also able to catch Class 1 and 2 doing over 40 on A roads.
bastards

Actually I realise I shouldn't have had a rant and seen the bigger picture the one where only employed people with a permanent residence get fekked for this and where it makes the lazy trolls look busy sO they can bleat about their hard life and it's not them honest bubb

And after all it is a time for difficult choices bail out the banks so they can carry in laundering money and financially raping the working stiff
Or bring in rules so that any bank using public money can't charge more than say 5£ in charges

Waste money on cameras and the pseudo industry round it or use that for say medical research and treatments or even put the money gained into actual road maintainence

Yup difficult choices yeah really bastards
