Re: Speeding Issues - Ask Me

It's because Plod is fat and thick.  Far easier to catch speeding motorists than crooks in order to justify your existence.

Traffic and road policing is a completely separate department from the more general oficers unfortunately. True they can still deal with most situations but they tend not to get involved in specific investigations.

define "lots"

My workload went up by lots when they were last fitted in our area

Why did the football player get away on the m4 in his mclaren in court, he was doing 160+, the volve t5 traffic car maxed out its speedo which the footage confirmed with the speed in the video and you could clearly see the mclaren disappearing in the distance 

Why are also the police rubbish at prosecuting people on mobile phones whilst driving with only a 50% success rate?

Why is it the crack heads get away with murder, yet the taxpayer gets r@ped financially for doing something thats a hundredth of the seriousness?

Also what is the answer to life?

Sadly google doesn't have all them answers, also where you work? At a guess your either an officer, police staff or part of the persecution?

can you be done for speeding on a bicycle?

I have a mate who use to race and he was stopped while out on a training ride and the officer said "did you know you were speeding"

His reply was "well of course I never, how the f**k do I know how fast I was going"

Do Bicycles set off speed camera's? I got a speedo on my MTB but whether I can hit 30 is another question

can you be done for speeding on a bicycle?

You cant be done for

No insurance
No Road Tax
Not wearing a Helmet
(sure these will change in the near future)

You can be done for most other road offences although rarely does this happen........

Hmmm The Mighty Elvi's signature is making me have naughty thoughts 

I think we should have autobahns and have done with it 

[MrBounce]

As far as I am aware you can't get done for "speeding" as such on a bicycle although I have heard of a case where you can be fined for "furious pedalling". How true this is I don't know but I think it was more a case of being in proper control and riding like a prize twonk.
