not disputing the legality of the OP's actions, neither am I condoning them; just putting the road conditions into context for all those who are ready to lynch him.

 

If he was using a hand held LTi 20/20 then you should know what he's been aiming at ...as it's got an inbuilt video camera.

& you might want to check that evidence ...38 mph over the posted limit is a court appearance

 

lol epic fail, ignorance and a spelling mistake

 

Probably a short ban to unfortunately

 

Can someone tell me when it went from 60 to 70 on a Dualcarraigeway then?

Remember that I go back quite some time!

 

 

Another epic fail - it's a short ban too.

And to the original poster; get a life, get a grip and get your dummy out of your ar$e. You were speeding and you got caught. That means you are a real criminal, and the police officer really was doing his job of catching real criminals.

God, I love these threads. Bring 'em on!

 

Not sure exactly when, but I started driving in 1991 and it was 70 then.

I've noticed a few times on the dual carriageway near me that I get overtaken while doing 70, and if I keep going at that same speed, I have to pass the same damn car seconds later which has slowed to 60 for the camera. And then they have to pass me all over again...

 

'Barrier' can also mean grass verge ...as long as there is a physical divider between the carriage ways & not just a white line.

1965 iirc ...& before that they were unrestricted, there was a brief spell during the 70's where it dropped to 60 & even 50? but this was a temporary measure to save fuel ...again iirc

 

I see .... so, it was 60 MPH back in the day - that's where I'm confused!

 

If you wont to go round with your little legs hanging out the back side of the law go and do it else where, this is ment to be a car site not *** licking site

 

are you old bill then? or one of those catastrophic failures; a special

 

I do feel for the OP, my thoughts are you do see these sort of speed traps a lot. I think what makes people mad is that they never seem to be there to help safety ie near schools and dangerous area's, they seem to be in areas that dont really need to be policed that strongly and only there for a easy nick . we all speed and there is a time and a place, but I do feel with the OP sounds like he was just keeping up with the other cars.

 

What a wankey thread.

OP: If you can't do the time, don't do the crime.

I speed - I'm confident we all do. When I get caught I'll take my fine/punishment like a man, and not whinge about the Police for doing their job. The fact the Police exist is probably reason most of us have still got our much loved cars - take the Police from the equation and your car wouldn't stay on the driveway for more than 5 minutes.

Grow up and face up to what YOU are ultimately responsible for.

 

Jarvmiester...another special?

 

"Special needs" by the sound of it .

 

What sets people like me apart from people like you is that I see the bigger picture, and don't have the narrow mindset that invariably lead to individuals (such as yourself) getting upset when they get caught for breaking the law, then blaming everyone except themselves for it.

Intelect is derived from the Latin word 'intellego', which means to understand. My advanced intellect has meant that I understand the concept I have explained above and have learnt from it the easy way,. Your lack of intellect means that you are not capable of understanding the concept I have explained above and will learn the hard way.

A special? No.

Except for when you consider my intellect.

Flame me!

 

 

martwrx got done myself d/c in leicester come on to d/c got up to 60 looked in rear view theirs the law in a 2 liter mondao slowed down to 50 behind me 4 1. 1/2 pulled me over do u know how fast u were going on the first d/c ?? ya i was doing 60 i told him unlucky he said its only 30 i said but its a d/c he said when u first come on the d/c there is a 30 sing in the middle of the d/c fixed to the tree ,,, sorry i didnot see it with a big grin he said tough this was 7,20 am sunday morning ,,,,,,,,,,, i had a clean licence 4 10 years went to court got a 2 week ban £400 fine ....... i was a new st 2.5 v6 mondao lol 4 years ago i am a scooby owner got stoped more in the moni than the scooby like u i was fuming keep your chin up scooby stew

 

Sounds to me like your as far up your own *** as the laws of physics allow, only to be let out of ones self gratification to *** lick the law. .

 

OK
<<Intelect is derived from the Latin word 'intellego',>>
<<the narrow mindset that invariably lead to>>
If my feeble intellect (2 LL's - from the latin word !) can remember a few rules of English grammar, it should be "leadS to" as mindset is singular.
<<the easy way,. >>
What is the comma for ? Is it like saying "over and out" instead of the correct ending to an RT, which is simply "out" ?

Seems your understanding in this area is below par.

 

Loving the way you had to edit your post.....! Wonder how many times?!?! :-)

Anyway, my point still stands - if you can't do the crime..... etc.... (Latin for Et Cetera - meaning "and the rest"!!)

 

"see the bigger picture"...sheesh after reading your post I bet you have trouble seeing past your inflated self opinion.

you should perhaps read the OP's posts in a little more detail; he wasn't complaining about getting caught speeding he was complaining about the circumstance and accuracy of the alleged offence.

so really your post is just the same as all the others (mine included); your bigger picture is actually nothing more than your own opinion....made me chuckle though so cheers

 

Not another mistake - et cetera does not need capitals

Edited as I spotted your incorrect use of the comma !
Perhaps if you checked your posts you'd make fewer mistakes !

I see no evidence to support your opinion about your intellect

I agree with your views on speeding/accepting the consequences.

 

Oh, and "meister" is spelt "ei", not "ie". But that would be unbearable pedantry, I'd better not mention it.

 

Doh !
Missed that one

 

Where's the OP gone??

At the end of the day we all speed ...imagine all those times we've been 'lucky' & indeed 'very lucky' where we've avoided plod/ points/ ban, so i'd say chalk this one down to experience & double check that 'evidence'

 

88 in a 50 is pretty bad, but there is still no need for a cop to be sat at the end of a dual carriage way wright where the limit changes, i bet most people just carry on as normal if the roundabout is clear, the cops know this and play on it to fill their coffers!


I have no problem with coppers being sat ouitside a school, but at the end of a dual carriage way right where the limit changes is taking the ****, iuts not as if its putting lives in danger is it?


We can thank Richard Brunstrom for this tactic, as well as coppers hiding in work vans and horse boxes the ****ing sad ******!



The tools that enjoy handing out these fines should be given better priorities from the ***** on high, that copper who was at at the end of the carriage way could have been doing more productive stuff!

 

Got fed up with all the bitching, and left the building?

I'm back. I've been busy the past couple of days. However, on my way home on Tuesday and Wednesday, the same motorbike traffic copper, with gun, was at the same roundabout. Just to warn everybody in Chelmsford and surrounding areas. Makes you wonder why he needs his motorbike?

Thanks for the support. I am disputing the speed and where he was pointing his gun because there were cars next to me, and around me. I might have begrudgingly accepted 3 points but this copper is intent on trying to get me banned. As said above I don't speed through 30mph zones, schools etc, I have a clean license, a job, insurance. I'm not one of the bad guys but unfortunately an easy target for a small percentage of traffic police.
