The more they legislate, the more road users will just drive illegally in some way.

It’s not as if the Police will be out there stop these people either, as they’re seemingly being replaced by cameras on the road.

A camera is not human and will not give chase if I have fake plates, no plates, magic flipping plates or simply a plate whose registration disappears at the flick of a button

ah someones on my wavelength:D

There is a petition on the PM’s website, against the proposed
cut in rural speed limits:

someone on a van forum earlier was saying they’re looking at putting ANPR cams into cats-eyes now, so every car would be recorded…

Yeah…I mentioned that on another thread on here, but like I said…

A camera is not a person…In fact it’s great that the government will start to rely so heavily on them as they’re easily defeated
