Has to be one of the straightest 20mph zones in Wales, he must have been distracted too!
And then some. As you enter it you can see the pink tarmac at the other end. It's only around 250 yards up the road ffs.
West to east - https://maps.app.goo.gl/UCAbY4NV1iN2BB7V7
Opposite way - https://maps.app.goo.gl/oc34svZagW7xZrUA9
Assuming a clear road, he lopped ~12 seconds off his journey time.
The cost to him: around £2.80 per yard or £58.80 per second!

A plate stuck on top of the one fixed to the car... hmmm...

And one being untaxed and overdue, and the other not being registered at all... hmmm...

This after a previous Labour MP and her brother thought speeding and blaming it on a Russian ex tenant was the way to avoid such fines.


No doubt its all a massive misunderstanding, she had just mounted her spare number plates on there for safe keeping and a screw appears to have failed.

to be fair (and I hate being fair to these people) it is entirely possible that a mischief-maker has popped fake-plates on in the hope of this outcome...
