Police Speeding Crackdown from Aug 20-26
Discussion
A heads up from the Police for those terribly bad and evil bunny killers out there...
Speed enforcement and awareness week
Added: 16/08/2012 13:05
Speeding drivers in Avon and Somerset are being warned to slow down or face the consequences during a week-long campaign to make the roads safer.
Police and Community Speed Watch volunteers are taking part in a Europe-wide co-ordinated speed enforcement operation from Monday August 20-26.
Avon and Somerset Constabulary will provide a high profile response to this campaign with the key objectives of
• Reducing the number of people killed or seriously injured on the roads
• Raising awareness of the dangers associated with speeding via education
• Increasing the number of offenders brought to justice for speeding offences
• Making communities feel safe by high visible policing
There will be high-visibility mobile patrols across the major road network, including the M5, M4, M32 and A303. Patrol vehicles will also be stationed for maximum exposure on motorway bridges and police patrol vehicle bays. Highway matrix signs will display speed enforcement and speed reduction messages.

Reply and ask for a copy of the photo, this will tell you if its the van you thought it was and should also have speed printed on it.This was wile in a pistonHead convoy to Wilton house at 8am, I remember clearly spotting the camera van and checking my speed so find it hard to belive I was over the limit

I guess there is a sneaky 30 zone on a stretch of the A358 which is mainly 40/50 mph
We were all driving at a safe sensible speed , I had one eye on my sat-nav which was telling me I was under the limit

I am giving up the will to live with fast cars these days
Noooooooooo - thats what they wantThey want you to drive a 900cc stbox and behave yourself and work in an office 9-5 and live in a wimpey home all in a row.
Oh and carry identity cards with GPS trackers in them
Oh and insurance black boxes in your car
Dont bow to the pressure, go and buy a big old smelly noisy yank tank and metaphorically stick two fingers up at them.
This politically correct nation has gone to the dogs. The police are only interested in generating money in order to pay their own salaries. Much as it was proven that speed cameras were only money making machines with no thought for road safety.

Back in the day with less cares that is how I would think. But running these kind of cars with the insurance and fuel costs is becoming a joke. It would be cheaper for me to buy a track car and a road car at present.They want you to drive a 900cc stbox and behave yourself and work in an office 9-5 and live in a wimpey home all in a row.

Why dont they go and pick on america? They see a 3.0 as a small engine!! If they sorted them out surely the price overall would come down as there demand would not be so big
