driver awareness course

[brightspark]

they only put the camera van where its going to catch -- get the most revenue from I asked the old bill to put one on our road on a night . all the pillocks in there noisy clapped out wrecks blasting past all the time flying past they said no its not cost effective

I read that they are stopping the 20mph zones as the death tolls had gone up since they were introduced, they plan to leave them up as they would cost to much to take down but wont inforce it.

To be fair they are mainly on built-up estates and outside schools so nothing really to complain about.

No issue if they are used sensibly, but where I grew up, the hole village is now 20. Absolutley rediculous.

 

[Wozzaaah]

shouldn't have said that it temps fate .. last month I raced a smartass that was holding traffic up driving slow for no reason . got past it and he wernt happy so I floored it so did he . I got the van over the ton in traffic and next thing blue lights it was an unmarked car . fortunately no camera and only one copper so I denied doing it listened to his lecture about getting banned and his patter and he let me go. he knew he wasn't going to get anywhere with it after I said I was doing 70 and that's it cos I clammed up and said nothing I didn't even get the riot act given

So you freely admit to doing 100mph in traffic but moan when people speed past your house??!!
Talk about double standards

Try whole boroughs in London. I'm glad to be out of them. And the yogurt weaving nimbys want more of them. I can't see the point in them really, parents haven't let their kids out for years, just make them play on their xboxstationwiimajigs. I'd be happy to see kids playing cricket with the stumps in a brick like we used to.

Yeah. Came across a few of those the other week. Though my pet peave is speed bumps in a 30 zone. Hit some of the monsters round here at 30 and your heads banging off the roof. Have to crawl over them sub 15 in the van.

I read somewhere that it's better [for your vehicle] not as an aid to more speed, you still need to slow down , to ride over adjacent bumps and not straddle them. Something to do with reduced tyre and suspension wear if you encounter them regularly.

Wife on a red light jumping course tomorrow and twas my fault...About 6 weeks ago i had her drive some stuff in the pick-up to a job behind me driving the van and told her to "keep up and don't lose me"...i caught a green turning left and she caught the late amber and a very early red at 22mph...Lucky girl got the course instead of points.
