no more fun in the tunnel. can guarentee that if the dump valve goes off too many times or if the exhaust seems too loud now, you're going to get a pull. Does this mean the end of tunnell runs?

This has been going on for years, I doubt very much that anything will happen. If speed cameras do appear then it will stop the hooligans, won't affect us as we don't speed through the tunnel......

Lets face it we have the blackwall tunnel on our route which is impossible to speed through due tot he traffic lights and 10 year long roadworks, we then have the limehouse link with SPECS so that makes it equally impossible to speed.

That's true. Was just thinking that mr plod will crack down on things like the tunnel runs now. They're bound to come up with some excuse to stop it.

It's just some politician jumping on the bandwagon trying to win some votes.

I'm not condoning innapropriate speeding though, but I would feel justifiably surprised if I came across a pedestrian walking through the dartford tunnel at 1am
