I'm going to speak very openly on this forum about my recent speed camera experiences:

I frequently drive to and from work (at rush-hour times) along Park Lane in Reading. It has a 30 mph speed limit. Quite often there is a marked mobile speed camera operating on this road. I'll readily admit that I drive as fast as I can along this road and have done so past this camera.

Today, I'm positive that I was doing 15 mph as I went past it.

Oh well what the heck...............I too past a speed camera van doing 15.7 mph today, limit was 60, but as usual I was stuck behind a <beep> with a caravan on the back of his 1.8 Mondeo, which can hardly pull itself up the hill, let alone trying to haul 2 tons of caravan with it

I openly admit that on Saturday 23 July 2005 here in the UK I reached speeds of 120 mph, overtook cars on both the left and the right and was probably driving far too aggressively for my own good and those around me.

So c'mon plod...open admission here take me to court. I'll even supply a photo.

I do very often in excess of 160 mph. But not in the UK, LMAO!!!! Germany is good for doing that speed, I've hit 179 mph on the GPS in my car a few times :D

As for the UK, the traffic is usually so f**ked up that I can barely hit 20 mph....

Hi Dean,

Thanks for being such a law abiding citizen and offering to stand witness for the prosecution. And of course you mention that you timed me ... which is probably anotehr potential offence. Ho hum.

Too much is bad.
Plenty is better.
