Not with Merseyside police...ticket in post is next.

I got done in London for 35 in a 30. I thought it was 10% plus 2mph, which means I should have been OK but apparently not. This was just after they increaseded it to that after taxi drivers complained they had suddenly reduced it too.

If the same happens as round here, someone left a perfect 2 bike trailer with ramps a nice tool chest, good tyres and a built in light board in their driveway while they nipped out . . . and some thieving scrap collection scum bag took it as it "looked scrap".

I came home once to find a guy loading a rusty car wing from my garden on to a flatbed truck full of scrap and old appliances. I made him take it off and put it back. It was waiting to go to the tip but it was the principle of taking stuff without asking. When I checked the cctv he had come in the garden and had a good wander round. Didn't knock on the door or anything.
