While I might occasionally "flash" someone re a speed check, if they were all spoilers, arials, big exhausts and 'dragon' painting I wouldnt bother. Some drivers endanger other drivers, themselves and pedestrians - so a few penalty points might cop them on.
Much and all as I am a sceptic on many laws and rules etc., I am willing to support this one because, lets face it, people are getting killed on a daily basis.
Q: If you are overtaking and are clocked at over the limit are you liable?? Varying opinions on this. If you're not driving dangerously then I think you should be let off because the quicker you drive to overtakle and get back in to your own side the safer - wheras if you are driving dangerously then you should get the points for that.
p.s. did an eejit every flash you back to thank you for flashing him?? Happened to me once, wasnt happy!!!!

MonsieurBond said:Are you sure this is not the Dublin Corporation camera?
I didn't think there was a speed camera there, although the boys in blue are known to hide behind the UCD flyover (heading into town) catching people who exceed the (controversially low) speed limit which is easy to do as it is a good wide road and you are going downhill!
Oh well, then it must be true ! ;-)Janet said:at least was told so by taxi driver
It's like saying ALL merc drivers or ALL BMW drivers are asses.
icantbelieve said:It's true to say that I'd rather young men spent money customizing their cars rather than on drugs or vast quantities of drink but customized car owners should notify their insurers about the (even basic) changes made and I doubt that many do which in essence means that a lot of customized cars are being driven uninsured, food for thought.
Purple said:Speed cameras are there to catch people who are breaking the law. Should we be listing them off for people like this?
Though I can't stand tarted up cars with spoilers that you could launch a small plane off it's not ok to say that all their owners are boy or girl racers (just like it's not ok to say that all black drivers have no insurance).
