short essay
there were few cars infront of me and one turned off just before a speed camera i strolled along at 30mph in a 40 zone. theres a speed camera is on the other side of the road..... the golf infront of me fooked off making it flashed while im in the middle....
sure im ok as i was doing 30 in a 40 (10mph under the limit as always past speed cameras as they scare me ) but just anoys me how some people drive sometimes as it was tipping it down aswell which is dangerous on that road

If you were doing 10mph under the speed limit through a gatso on the other side of the road i'd have booted it by you as well tbh.

If I see gatsos on the other side of the road I try my best to set them off.

i was getting a taxi back from town the other night and we thought he must be having it a bit as this seems a bit quick, then a gatso on the other side of the road goes off 
he was like ha ha cant get me as its on the other side of the road. I was just thinking how about you dont do 50 in a 30 when taking me home

Had some penis in driving at 67mph tonight in the middle lane with a Highways agency 4x4 in lane one. He drove like this for about 5 miles until he got level then booted it away

The lines on the road are a set distance apart, by looking at how far you had travelled across them in the time between flashes, it will show that you weren't speeding.

In theory ^, but some of the cameras flash too slowly, making it look like you've travelled further. there was a big fuss about it a while back.
