cant u do the trick where us end a cheque and send them too mcuh? like its ?60 and us end ?65, and it fucks up there system cuz they cant cash it in? worth a go

or wot about u say 'can u send me a picture of the driver becuase there are various drivers that use my car and im unsure of which was driving at the time'

sending a cheque for to much is a total myth and doesnt work at all, dunno where people got the idea from but a m8 tried it and u still get the points trust me :) ask to see the photo evidence, u never know it mite get quashed :D gud luck

How long does it take from the date of the offence to receive the citation or whatever? I think I got caught twice in ten minutes last saturday in my Taxi

The fine bit is separate to the points bit. So whether you opt for half days re- training or just a fine, you get the same points wotever. My mum's been done on a new one near us, plus her m8 and 1 of my dads m8s lol - dopey arsed crinklies -they're as blind as bats.

BOTTOM LINE IS...
Everybody drives a little over somtimes - if not all the time.
Sometimes you get caught and sometimes you don't.
Nothing you can do about it really.

Just think next time - if you are on a road you don't know too well - don't drive too fast bacause there could be cameras on it.

Unlucky to get points and a fine for the sake of 6mph - but hey - it happens to everyone eventually.

TunaFish is the way forward... you mark my words. :D

gO bIGMIKIE gO!
Thats wot I like see - going down all guns blazing. Nuff respect for the broadside onto a roundabout whilst being chased by the law!
Top story - hope it doesn't turn out as shit as its likely to tho:(

keep an eye on them police camera action progs - bet he appears on there later in the year. Shame the chopper never got to ya - video footage of yer nova terarinf up the streets - to be on telly - ah - almost had yer 15 minutes of fame!
Still - very irresponsible - As Steve Wright used to say in the 80's - it's not big and its not clever (but it's bloody funny! :p)

So did anyone watch 5th Gear last night then as they had Quentin Wilson onnabout speed cameras and being caught on them etc. etc.

He basically just said that if you send a cheque for the wrong amount the just get annoyed and send you to court. Resulting in something worse.
He then did a true or false thing on general information which people think they know about camera's.
Pretty interesting...
Especially as half of it proved my dad wrong. HAHAHAHA!!!
