It's a joke mate, eevry time you drive down that road you have to speed up as someone sits on your arse, there could have been any reason for it.

I'm sorry I am all for speeding tickets and cameras, if you are speeding tough. If I get a ticket for speeding tough I will deserve it. Most speed reductions have a warning sign before you get to the drop so slow down.

Just off to polish my halo.

Oh and to sit down with pizza and a bottle of wine and watch the fall out. I'll probably get done tomorrow and be on here ranting myself, but I still agree with them none the less.

gawd - how ridic! no matter where in the world, petty policing of this kind fosters extremely bad sentiment in the community towards the police by making law abiding citizens feel like criminals - not a wise thing to do me thinks.
