Average speed cameras

Posted on by

 
These cash cows are a pain in my arse, my daily commute takes me through a section of these yellow perils.

Installed when road and junction improvements were happening, and set at the marvellous speed of 50mph.
On a road that is 70mph everywhere else..

Now my gripe isn’t with the cameras, it’s with the low IQ simpletons that seem to have no concept of what average speed means..

Every morning and night it’s the same scenario.. slow for the camera, then speed up, till said moron spots second camera then slams on brakes..
Repeat and rinse 3 more times..

Then you have the idiots that can’t keep a constant speed, I take it most of them have some sort of leg muscle wasting disease?

Maybe someone should invent cruise control…
Anyway personal rant over..

    • Those lacquer paints so loved by grafitti cunts are very good

      (according to a bloke down the pub)

      Morning all

    • have them near me, a few years ago someone wiped them all out with a slug gun. straight away all replaced, never mind the cost to the tax payer, i was hoping it would become a monthly event

  2. It wouldn’t be so bad if you didn’t have to drive miles and miles in motorway roadworks and never see any fuckers working….🤬🚙

    • Seems to be the normal now, same as having road works on all major routes and the alternative routes in a area simultaneously!
      Is it too much to ask for the companies carrying out the work to liaise with each other so as to cause the least disruption?

  3. If the speed limit is sensible then there is no real reason to break it.
    I do know that in the UK there are cameras positioned where they are most likely to catch unaware drivers.

    It’s not about road safety, it’s all about raising revenue.

    Unless you are on a reasonably long journey and in a burning hurry then driving faster than the limit makes no sense.

    I use Google Maps a lot.
    It will tell me the expected arrival time for a journey.
    If I drive to the speed limit it’s accurate, but if I drive like a nutter then I will only arrive a few minutes early on an average journey.

    There was talk about fining people who are just 1mph over the speed limit.
    That makes no sense to me.

    A police car has to have the speedometer calibrated very often to make sure that it’s accurate.
    A private car driver doesn’t.
    I don’t think that speedometer calibration is even part of the MOT test.

    So how the fuck can a driver be reasonably expected to keep to a speed limit?
    Everyone is going to be a few mph out, either under or over.

  5. They first trialled these by Lumbertubs in Northampton. Cunts still go tanking along the dual….

  6. Years ago near Wrexham, there was an average speed zone set up during huge road works…. the cameras were up months before there was even the hint of a shovel or a wheel barrow and the road works took an eon to complete (naturally).

    The thing that grips my shit is that once the works were complete, the average speed zone and cameras remained…. I guess the Mayor and the Council need some way to replenish the champagne kitty for their weekly ahem “meeting”. Greedy cunts.

    • Same with the huge roadworks on the M6. I noticed that the first thing to be completed were the speed cameras.

  7. Maybe you are sharing your commute with a bunch of Douglas Bader fans. Quick, quick…quick quick quick, slow.

    • You wouldn’t have seen Dougie for fecking dust , a right thrill seeker who would have probably given the camera the “V” on the way past.

  8. They don’t want you to drive. They want the roads kept clear for £300k Range Rovers so our betters like Suckdick Khunt can get to their important meetings thinking up more woke virtue signalling laws.
