Enough?

The Anti-Talivann site Speedcam is the best. Or worst.

I know they're not recent, but they are typical!

sorry to shatter that illusion

And now that the vans are out of use - and the public got good at spotting them ,and kit got smaller ,they started using things like Fiat Pandas , which can (almost) hide behind bus shelters -and that's not five months old -more like a month .

No wonder you got out - they couldn't even afford a decent van for you( or did the pedalling to keep up with invalid carriages hurt) ,with all the profit they were making.Now with all the cuts this new Government is going to be making , expect to get a new van shortly - Reliant might well be back in business .They might even paint them yellow - that way we'd know to stay clear of all the rip off merchants.

Of course the police don't care. They only care about money. I once reported the dorset speed camera mob for driving over a footpath and failure to stop after a road traffic accident. To this day the police haven't replied to me, they simply forwarded my complaint on to the civilian run camera mob who sent me a letter full of 'irrelevant truths', ie. lying by omission.
I'd hate to know what they would do if I reported someone dangerous to them, I'd probably get a knock at the door after midnight from whoever I reported.

Another example of 'irrelevant truths' was when I asked the speed camera mob for a particular location when they were operating and if they checked the speed limit signs, and if so what were the results of their check. They replied saying they checked and found that the speed camera warning signs were in place. That may have been true, but it was irrelevant, one of the speed limit signs for the direction they were attacking was missing. Did they not check? Did they check and ignore it? Only one of those two could be true.

Andrew, you should know by now that SCPs are staffed by individuals who consider themselves to be immortal and infallible!
They actually BELIEVE that they cannot be wrong - see here: Linky

Note that as in your case, instead of checking after your enquiry - which should have alerted them that there was just the remotest possibility of a rift in the fabric of their universe, they simply spew out their rubbish in the firm belief that they cannot make mistakes.

Their arrogance knows no bounds!
