Safe Speed Forums

Noticed this in the Sun Newspaper Saturday.



What a shame, and just think of all the lives that'll be lost.

Maybe the partnerships are burning GATSOs themselves now, so that they can claim on the insurance and buy more profitable Talivans.

I can get as far as "Wee sleakit, cow'rous, tim'rous beastie
Oh what fried chips are in thy breastie."

I wandered, lonely as a cloud,
Then torched some Gatsos
Laugh, I nearly sh@t...
(Recently recovered note from the poem 'Daffodils' by William Wordsworth)

Water, water everywhere, but none for a burning Gatso
(From the Rhyme of the Ancient Driver)

Let me liken thee to a torched Gatso...
(Shakespeare)

A Gatso stood by a road
'For profit' its flash forebode
'Till along a bloke came
Then set it aflame
And allowed me to pen this small ode
(Me)

MGBGT---

Visions of an ancient (possibly submariner) SCP boss with a Gatso round his neck ( as like albatross) spring to mind with water water.

Now - cameras on fire - do they smoke and if so in a public place- who will be responsible??

whether you agree with speed limits as they are or not, whether you agree with speed cameras or not,

Is this thread glorifying terrorist acts? If this upsets you it is supposed to be an ironic comments on tonight's news)

And if it isn't, is it just a bit childish?

I don't know why people bother setting cameras on fire, they just put them back regardless.

On a roll,mpaton - yep - at the cost - less to old Golden things(doesent actually affect SCP - tax deductable ).So cameras not so profitable/popular as he thinks -

But as civil rights thingy - on top of Dunfermline ( oh please dont say East fife - to brown - hehehehehe) - shows him that hm-joe public aint happy.

Fair point and accepted.

mpaton2004 - the pint ( or in golden browns case point) the fife motorist was not in the least happy with plans to increase the tolls on the Forth Bridge - a point that brown and the scots labour party had missed.
Now ---if we could get our point about upset/overtaxed/over prosecuted motoarists accross - whoopee.
