Camera sly

H.M. Swindon is another brain dead driver. I bet he shops at Asda every week a mile down the road. If only people like him would take more interest in what is happening they would realise just what this Government is doing. As the latest TV advert says,- "It's 30 for a reason." So the gov can raise more revenue.

Too right. Seems that on a speed awareness course they tell you that in the distance it takes to stop from 30mph a car going 35 will still be doing 21mph. "Which car is that?" I ask. "A 1959 Ford Anglia?"
