Probably not pranksters at all. Probably the old bill trying to fill the coffers  ;D ;D ;D

I notice the complete absence of reports of any accidents as a result of motorists doing 40mph.  It must have been terrifying though.

Note to self.  Mustn't think of this as a good idea. ;)

I would imagine all convictions will be quashed...

If not, let it get to court, print off that report as evidence...

If I was on the Jury, no way would I let them receive guilty.

There are, no doubt, some clowns out there. [smiley=thumbdown.gif]

Still, if the authorities developed these measures, we really would something to complain about.

Not many repeat offenders using that technique eh?

There are a few signs in the UK warning vehicles that aircraft are checking road speeds.
