Sorry, you've lost me.

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

YEP Paul nn - had that feeling some years ago -reported pile of junk to "seniour officer" in range rover parked in middle of roundabout . set of up road (a 4123, bham - wolv) with hgv behind - i was tailgated and put foot down - 4 miles up i gets stopped - at that time was £32 and 3 points - no mention of hgv on my tail - only offence being committed was my "being over limit" - had plod being dooing duty then i would have been cleared and hgv done.
Aparently "Senior officer" was under "pressure" to stop accidents on this road caused by "excessive speed"
Now i would not use this road after 4pm because i did not feel safe with tailgaiting/ high speed problems etc - but he could mount an excercise at 2pm when all was quiete to justify this.
Who was right - me or him??
I was exceeding limit by about 5 mph.
Perhaps some of us should get in car video systems and record the mad antics of our so called professional police drivers.
Once upon a time i treated PC traffic officer with respect as i believed his skills were superior - now i would love to get pc plod on skid pan/ narrow road etc and give him a very red face.
The traficpols i see now have a long way to go to compare with those i have asked for advice in the past - Ian H and IG seem to be the excewptions.
