See they're only human after all.

Still you would have thought that he knew the camera was there (or was it a mobile unit?). The temptation must have been too great. Must be a crackin' bit of road though.

In south Wales there are two current cases involving coppers and drink driving. One is being done for taking and driving away a cop car whilst under the influence - which he later crashed.

Naughty boys aren't they.

Mobile camera - no fixed cameras in Northern Constaulary area .

It is a good bit of road - but the cops know this and are always somewhere about.

The alternative route to Inverness is via the A82 over Glen Coe and up the Great Glen. It is a cracking road. Hell, I even enjoyed it in a 1 litre Micra automatic!

I got £500 fine and 6 points for doing 69mph in a 30 a couple of years ago.

Not big or clever - Just know how bloody lucky I was that:
a) I wasn't banned

and, more importantly,

b) that I never hit anyone!!!

It's not a bad road when there isn't traffic coming the other way.
