I hesitate to ask how you found out...

 

Dr Zoidberg scribbled on the back of a napkin:

This is North Wales, right? We probably have to assume the worst then.

 

If this is for mobile use for catching people driving like a twat then I
don't have too much of a problem with that.

If it's for parking up at the side of the road and taking pictures of you
doing 32mph in a 30........

Timo Geusch fumbled, fiddled and fingered:

It was parked up at a cul de sac junction, near some (non operating)
road works, I was waiting for the temporary lights to change. My
daughter (pillion) noticed the occupants and pointed them out to me. 2
trafpol in black NWP polo shirts and what I assume was a laser/camera,
the people carrier was bedecked with aerials etc.

Groups of sports bikes whizzing past in the opposite direction (A5 near
Cerrig y Drudion) no doubt all contributing to the funds as there was a
temp. 40 mph restriction in place

Out of interest would that be regarded as perverting the course of
justice?

True 'nuff, the beauty of this one though was the plod vehicle was at
the end of it so it was getting those who accelerated a tad earlier than
they should have ..

I get the impression their "rules" are merely lip service for the
politicians anyway really, well around here it seems so.

Bastards got me coming out of Much Wenlock last week, within sight of
the end of the restricted zone, with nothing but farmland around

 

On friday night I was hoping for an unmarked car to show up.
A friend of mine was driving like a tit and refused to slow down despite my
complaints [1] and I really would have loved to have seen blue flashing
lights behind us.

They obviously forgot their rules about "safety" vans being clearly marked.


[1] had it been on any road other than a motorway I'd have insisted on
getting out. [2]

[2] Next time I see him there will be a very frank discussion about this.

It does make a mockery of the claim that cameras are there to reduce speeds
and not necessarily catch speeders doesn't it.

What I find more worrying is that they banned him from driving for a
non-motoring offence.

Tell that to the Cheshire Trafpol, using a bus lane for their van and a
couple of cars, last week.... and the same spot used for a traffic
census, 2 days later.
