Speed Cameras

These speed cameras are a complete scam. £60 a shot and it takes 6 weeks for the photos to arrive. Whats so speedy about that?

Re: Bad camera

Boddie..............You need to get yourself an old landrover, like I have, then you will have no chance of getting photographed. May I take this oppertunity of apologising to anybody who gets stuck behind me when I am on the road with it...............Jon (yes I know my spelling is bad)

Re: Bad camera

I love my series 3 Landrover. I somtimes go birding in it.. It's useful for trips to the gerden centre where I get all my wildlife plants and shrubs from..
It's also useful for carrying gravel home for the pond
