If you're gunna break the law, you should be prepared to be caught and punished. Not stopping might make it worse, but then again, it's not like they were trying to pull you over properly.

If I were you I would take the stance that you didnt not see the police trying to flag u down....I mean it wasnt as if there was any flashing blue lights etc...

You may get away with it if your speedo is set below what the car is doing bearing in mind you are also allowed 10%. They might have knocked just incase the car was stolen as you never stoped.

IIRC you're not allowed the car's speedo to under-read by anything, but you're only allowed 10% over.

If they have you on Camera, and you knowingly drove away when the cops tried to stop you, you are fucked.

wtf were they doing behind a bus shelter?

PS if there were no temporary or fixed speed camera signs showing then they cant do anything, its one of the regulations of speed cameras, they have to put up a sign, it has to be on the radio or in the paper a week b4 that they intend to put a spd camera up and they can only do it in areas that have had a certain amount of accidents

I thought the signs were a guideline, which only 85% of cameras had to adhere to?
