| Handy, Having read your most recent post (your one most imidiately above mine), I can see that you are angry with "speeders" (specifically a speeder) who took one of your relatives. I now understand your indescriminate, glib comments - but I have taken on board where you are coming from. All that sa... |

| I think the matrix signs were due to an earlier accident westbound between J16 & J17. No, you must be mistaken. You see, there are speed cameras in operation between J17 and 16 so there can't possibly have been an accident there -- you must have been imagining things again. Yeah, but the accide... |

| The only way this is ever going to get changed is if we get people to stand for Parliament ourselves on single issues. Now the general election is over, all we have to do is wait for the grim-reaper. I have said before that people elect governments at general elections. I honestly believe (subject t... |

| Yes, the limit and enforcement for exceeding the limit has to start somewhere... But to have been the victim of being fined £60 for 6mph over the posted limit, downhill, sunny day, dual carriageway.... you accept that you were speeding, albeit by 'only' 6mph. Where would you start the fines then? 2... |

The first thing is that I have passed FAIR COMMENT about you and your views based on my perceptions of you from what YOU post and pontificate about yourself. Secondarily, if you feel that agrieved that you mus... |

| At the end of the day, we get the laws we're prepared to accept and tolerate. Personally, I think it's coming time enough for some of us to stand as independent candidates (safespeed candidates!?!?!?!) and to fight local council seats as well as Parliamentary by-elections. I am quite sure that the e... |

| We're told that exceeding the speed limit is dangerous - we might kill people x times over. But when the BiB exceed the limit by NINETY MILES AN HOUR, it all okay. Pot kettle and black come to mind. As for the phrase "Quack Quack", I have this thing about ducks, you'll see it elsewhere on this board |

The thing is, Handy, the problem with this strict enforcement of speed limits is quite simply that the the retribution... |

I wonder what the ramifications would be if it could be shown that one of these cameras had temporarily blinded someone and actually caused an accident. Possibly maiming or killing someone?
ANy comments? |

If driving "safely" is acceptable to overcome an 'absolute' offence then there is going to be some mileage here.
I'm obviously not exceeding the limit by enough, am I? |

| You miss understand the purpose of speed limits Doing 29 mph in a 30 mph zone does not excuse not being fully in control of your vehicle. If you can not stop or have to cross the double white lines then you are driving without due care and attention. You should have recognised the drop kerbs and th... |
