Couldn't agree more, Police inspired, led and funded vigilanties.

I will sleep well tonight knowing that my taxes are being spent on such a worthwhile "intelligence gathering" operation. I'm sure it'll make a huge difference in the fight against home-grown terrorisism!

The interesting bit about it is.....I think i probably WAS over the 40 limit, but they clearly can't prosecute using the "old duffer" system. My main objections to the letter are; the "Final Warning" part, the fact that it's aimed at the Registered Keeper, not neccessarily the driver, and the fact t...

Just received a "Final written warning" from Macclesfield Police. Apparently my "vehicle...was monitored and found to be exceeding the speed limit..." This was done by "Community Speedwatch Volunteers" and the details have now "been passed to the Macclesfield Neighbourhood Policing Unit (which is) t...

Might not be a case of people being "dumb", more likely people are lost due to the fact that there are so many different types of "road monitoring" systems in place now.

Anyone know what the tall ones with the glass bowls on the A1 near Dishforth are?

OK, does that mean SPECS etc also get it wrong?

I was stopped this afternoon by three of County Durham's finest. Turns out my car had scored a "hit" on a roadside ANPR set-up and had come up as "stolen".

They're attached to tall pylons at the side of the road, 2 semi-circular glass "bowls" per mast with 2 small white lines at the side of each carriageway. No...
