However, insurance companies normally have a mechanism whereby you don't get premiums back pro rata, so you wouldn't expected to get 75% of the premium back if you terminated the policy three months in. You NEED to read the SMALL print and read it very carefully, the important word is if YOU cancel...

Preferably with a serving/ex traffic officer (for reasons best known to myself) I'm in the leeds/bradford/manchester area and would appreciate some advice as to which route to take either the Roada or IaM route. Advantages/Disadvantages/Differences?

I'll just add that I tend to use the roads quite a lot in the early hours, and have found just lately that the roads are worse and worse, I drive a very powerful vehicle and find that my traction control can hardly cope sometimes, my last vehicle was just as bad and it really does feel like the road...

I know it doesn't work for everyone, however IIRC the machine moorfields use can go to 8mm. I'd be giving them a ring, the consultants are really good and w...

I used to suffer from those sort's of problems when I wore specs. I resolved the issue by sitting under a large machine which zapped away until my eyesight was nigh on perfect 6/4 (that's two lines under an opticians chart) which ain't half bad from a -3.75 shortsighted prescription... :D As a bypro...

Somebody has, although it's not for public consumption at the moment. Mr. Smith is in reciept of it AFAIK.

I think the secondary check with the Truvelo is the distance of the front of the vehicle from the white lines. It's not the white lines that trigger the scamera, it's the piezo(?) strips just before them. Can someone confirm this. If the TruVelo is working correctly, then the vehicle that has trigg...

In the past I have read articles about people who used the old hairdryer trick and have been told by the police to stop or they will be reported for impersonation Given ACPO's advice on being careful re pointing speed guns, as they may be 'mistaken' for real guns... Maybe someone should be mistakin...

Paul,

Did MCN get in touch?

Also, have you considered asking http://www.migrationwatchuk.org/ for funding ideas? as they appear to be incredibly successful at existing in the same sort of boat as safespeed lives in.
