    Well, my card hasn't been charged for it and it was only once - I
    haven't had much luck trying to get hold of the bloke. Which might be
    partially my fault but I can't spend that much time chasing him. But
    then again you know what mobile phone reception is like at the place I
    work.

    I am very surprised about this as I've dealt with him before and stuff
    turned up when he said it would (otherwise I wouldn't order from him
    again) and it was decent quality.
    Indeed. The plan with sending him an email didn't quite work, I guess.

  3. Yes, fair enough
    Yes, again.
    Yes, there is, because he apparently decided to believe it and quote it
    to support his argument.

    Eh? How do you conclude that. He says "light WAS only considered".
    He does not say that he only considers it to be jumping a red light.
    He actually says that this approach does not give the true figures.

    Even a tiny amount of comprehension reveals that David's comment was
    that the RAC figures are pretty bad, but the true situation is much
    worse, because THE RAC only considered it to be jumping a red light if
    it was jumping a red light by a large margin.

    He EXPLICITLY says that this does not give the TRUE figures.

    He EXPLICITLY says that the TRUE figures would be much higher.

    What do you think he wrote? In what possible way does what he wrote
    indicate that he believes that it only counts if it's more than several
    seconds after the light changes?

    It looks rather as if you've jumped to the conclusion that a cyclist
    talking about traffic lights must be defending jumping them in some
    way, so you've not bothered to think about what was actually written
    and just gone of on a knee-jerk attack. I rather wonder whether you
    even got to the end of the first sentence quoted above.

    regards, Ian SMith

    If the last Honda declas were from there, you're dead right. They were top
    notch. It was Sunrise who supplied the decals for TOG's TS 250 and they were
    bloody good, so I'd be giving them another chance.
    Get him early doors before he has a chance to get out doing "stuff".

    Yes, the first set where from there as well. I've seen some of his other
    stuff and I'm happy to buy more of it.
    I'll have to try that, given that today I got to talk to a fax
    machine...

    It's not often you see the same number for phone and fax, but Sunrise manage
    it ;-)

    Oh, silly me, I have been under the impression that it meant prepare to
    stop!

    Silly you, indeed.

    It means stop.

    Get yourself a copy of the Highway Code, read, learn.

    "AMBER means ‘Stop’ at the stop line. You may go on only if the
    AMBER appears after you have crossed the stop line or are so close to it
    that to pull up might cause an accident"

    You stupid ****.

    See what impressions do? They make you look like a fuckwit.

    Doesn't even have to do that...

    http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/
    Signsandmarkings/index.htm
    and click on "Light signals controlling traffic".
    It's Alan "All you need to do to get off a speeding photo is tell them to
    send you the evidence, and they'll drop it, because all cameras are set
    wrongly - I know, because I've done this twenty times in the last couple
    of years." Holmes.

    And it *IS* bollocks too. We took a car to a garage about 10 miles away for
    a clutch to be fitted and the garage owner took it for a test drive when
    he'd finished, Apparently he went through a speed cam and got photographed.

    The car owner got the NIP and wrote asking for photo proof as he wasn't even
    in the same town as the car that day and it obviously wasn't him driving, He
    reported this back and a letter was sent to bloke who was supposedly
    driving.

    Now none of the people in the car look like either of the two people
    involved in this, but the case most certainly hasn't been dropped and the
    lawyers are now involved.

    So someone's going to pay someone.
