....
Here we go again

If you want to write/speak in American you're welcome to do so!!!!       

Why bother pulling people up on it then

It's friendly banter!

and because we speak English ... not American (and besides Jason is too big to take the pi$$ out face to face!      )

I'd have thought that 110mph on the Lancs would have you air born! 

Lucky you did actually see it  ....... it not something you'd want coming through the screen at any speed - let alone a ton plus!

Lets just say, the way he pulled it out of the passenger side window, I well backed off, thinking it was something a bit more deadly. Luckily for me his aim was crap, apart from the fact he nearly fell out. We got em though in the end............

For myself I have absolutely no problem with ANPR cameras,after all if you're doing nowt wrong you've nowt to worry about.Both my cars are taxed tested and fully insured,and I have a full-clean-licence to drive them.If I have to pay I don't see why anyone else should get away with not doing so.It's called obeying the law!

Put it this way. I was told a woman got raped in a town not so far from here a few years back. All she could remember was a vague make, size and colour of the vehicle the sh1tbag was driving.

Not a lot to go on, then. Oh, and the time could be narrowed down to within half an hour or so.

Vehicle description was searched, and from a base of tens of thousands of vehicle movements in/out of the area on the ANPR database, two vehicles popped out. Bobbies were sent out to both registered keepers the day after the event. One was shocked, well meaning, wished them luck with their enquiries. The other was shifty as hell, and hadn't shifted the forensic evidence from his vehicle yet. Job done in a couple of man-hours. I'm told that investigation would have cost in the region of £1M and may not have returned a conviction without ANPR. Had it been my mother/wife/daughter I'd damn well want ANPR, but I just hope that the data can continue to be ring-fenced for such purposes, because the government and insurance companies must be eyeing it up with glee at the moment.
