You lot at Safespeed are nothing but a bunch of dangerous anarchists!

Well so Stephen Ladyboy was saying on the Clive Anderson show today on Radio something or other.
Also other gems such as "roads were people are travelling slower than the limit suggest they are afraid to go any faster therefore those roads should have their speed limits reduced".

Genius!

From him, I would take that as a compliment..... :wink:

The government don't like free speech do they. Just ask the old geezer that was thrown out of the party conference.

Courtesy of speed surveys where motorists see the spot measuring equipment and slow down well under the limit just to make sure they’re not as risk - just like when at actual speed enforcement sites. Combine that with over-reading speedos and, as if by magic, they have 'justification' for reducing the limit.

Yesterday he said he had a clean license, but has had 9 points in the past and does use a GPS camera map.

I never thought of myself as a dangerous lawbreaking anarchist. It seems all I have to do is carry on driving safely in the same manner as I have been doing for years and the Government will turn me into a criminal with no intervention on my part! Cool. This is what I pay my taxes for.

As far as I'm concerned Speed Cameras are dangerous, and are probably killing people, so what does that make Mr Ladyboy, a dangerous killer?

A complete and utter *&^(*)_&^%*() (**&^%%&*( (**&)_. and for the hell of it a *^£^$*£)$ too.

Of course now he has a "clean license" I guess automatically he's a safe driver.

I have been trying to find a transcript or a playback but no joy.
It was on Radio 4's Clive Anderson show at around 12.30(ish) on Tuesday.
Maybe someone else with rather more grey matter could find it.

Honestly mate that's the story of my life.
I remember telling people Princess Diana had died THREE days after she actually had.
Still better late than never!

I am a "dangerous anarchist", with 11 points on my licence in 25 years driving and I have never had an injury accident. My only cock up of any consequence was caused by inattention (stress from work making me angry) not noticing a car stopping for a zebra crossing. :shock: I pushed that car across the crossing and learned from my mistake. I don’t get angry driving any more. I leared to drive in all conditions, all types of transport and at all speeds. If you drive every where at a super slow speed, how exactly will you learn your abilities? If all you cook is beans on toast will you ever learn how to do a 5 course meal?
