Just randomly reading some motoring pages on the interwebby this afternoon when I came across this article.
It just sounds so familiar to other articles from numerous different counties recently.
I have no issues with community speed watch, they do good work most of the time when the operatives use a degree of common sense and judgement, but it seems so many of them let the power of using a speed camera go to their heads.
This article just echoes that, and some of those village do-gooders are just a bunch of hypocrites anyway.
I know of two recent incidents where members of a so-called " community speed watch " team were prosecuted for, guess what, speeding in the very same village .
one was handed a fine for doing 39mph and the other took a speed awareness course even though she was clocked at 41mph in the 30mph zone .
both were members of the "team" and both residents in the village, talk about hypocrites or what.
Anyway, just a little bit from me.
best watch out for angry looking OAP's in mad hatter tall hats now.
