Average Speed Cameras (http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/article-23370879-details/Drivers+can+avoid+speeding+tickets...by+changing+l anes/article.do)

Hmmm.... really?

[PACMAN]

or drive really close to a lorry or bus when passing the first camera so it does read your plate ;)

Or don't have a front plate "due to an unforunate accident with a pheasant only five minutes ago Officer"

Its getting far too rediculous, the amount of cameras of all varieties on our roads these days is just beyond belief!!!:eek:

And all this money that have got from them, where is it gone?

These people need to get a life:evil:

[lightbody]

Oh wow!

Thats a disgrace that they were allowed to go ahead with implementation when they knew it had such a glaring shortcoming.

Speed cameras. My pet hate (and not because I speed!).

I can't believe they spent so much money on these things and they have this shortcoming. However, whenever i've seen them on the road they only ever have one set, so does that mean one set can monitor all 3 lanes, but can't recognise you moving to another lane? Or that they only monitor one lane at a time anyway?

There was an interesting article on Pistonheads about cameras and the guy saying that it's all about money - then he would as he's the salesman...

You can just see the polis sitting about going "Bugg@r it we're short a few quid for the Christmas night out! We're going to have to pay for it ourselves!"

"Naw don't be stupid shug! We'll just tell people that if they change lanes the averaging cameras won't get them! Then they'll blat through and we'll make a wad more dosh!"

They should have speed cameras where there are houses etc. and the limit is 20mph.

Folk speed down our street at god knnows what speed and there are kids out playing. Drives me nuts:mad::mad::mad:
