No accidents or convictions since starting driving in 1981..probably more luck than judgement though

Intersting to know where peoples points have come from. Bet most are from speeding past fixed cameras. Personally I have no points, wouldnt look good if I did.

court / fine / nothing
Gatsos only arrived here about 3 years ago! (we currently have 22 Gatsos, 3 with film) and a number of unmarked patrols.
Principles are the same as UK - to make money - so much so that our speed trap system is going private!

it is all just a great big money making scheme for them isn't it!! going to treat myself to one of those road angel gizmos soon. will be £400 well spent.
did anyone read about the euopean business woman that got the huge fine for speeding? it was in the paper the other day and it was about £40k. it's all done in relation to how much people earn where ever she comes from.
at least they haven't thought of that over here yet!!

There's the famous one on the Eastbound N4/M4 going into Dublin, just after the Lucan turnoff where the limit falls from 70 to 50. I don't think that's ever had any film in it....

Saw something on teletext yesterday that made me giggle..
A speed camera had been stolen by a motorist in Oxfordshire, allegedly. The Police seem to think the camera, worth over £42000, had probably nabbed the driver doing a spot of speeding and rather than get fined and points, he/she had nicked the camera..oh and its flash unit too..
So, I guess if anyone is offered this camera and flash unit in a pub somewhere, spose the fuzziewuzzies might want it back lol

Well look at that! I just split the voting 50/50!
Got caught for speeding in my mums mini 42 in a 30 mph zone. I know better now though!
