Speed - "break the law" suggests we could do whatever we like and not be pursued. And it goes both ways...Gavin wrote: Wed Jan 13, 2021 11:09 amAs if Brits were not despised enough in certain quarters, now we have people delighted they can break the law with impunity!
Dry yer eyes, it used to be like that anyway. As many others, I've only ever got done by being pulled and escorted to a cash machine anyway!Gavin wrote: Wed Jan 13, 2021 11:09 amAs if Brits were not despised enough in certain quarters, now we have people delighted they can break the law with impunity!
But if avoiding a fine is the best that Brexit can offer for the hundreds of billions spent on it... maybe it's just not that great?A perceived benefit of Brexit, found one!duncs500 wrote: Wed Jan 13, 2021 11:07 amWell I for one think it's good!

(for the people who want the break the law).I don't think you'll find too many on here that think it is great. It is however not the cause of all the world's ills. It's also over, so it's probably not worth getting bent out of shape over anymore.Gavin wrote: Wed Jan 13, 2021 11:50 am Who the fuck is crying you spanker?
It is not over though is it, there will be years of negotiating all sorts, Christ, we could have a unified Ireland before that happens. This thread or certainly the last page or so has been people laughing at any perceived benefit of Brexit so I joined in. Also, nobody suggested it is the cause of all the worlds' ills.duncs500 wrote: Wed Jan 13, 2021 12:10 pmI don't think you'll find too many on here that think it is great.

How recently? 2018 is when I started receiving tickets, and I’d been flashed at least once a year before that for 19 years without receiving any.Mito Man wrote: Wed Jan 13, 2021 10:11 amI’ve never been through France without being flashed by at least one camera but I’ve never had a ticket sent to me in the U.K so I’ve always found that surprising (same with my dad).Brannen wrote: Wed Jan 13, 2021 9:48 am Does this count as a brexit benefit?

I don't think I've ever driven in Europe, so still doesn't do much for me... if you can make use of the up to 90 days in 180 at some point, anyone want to try it out? It says on the spot fines still can be handed out though.
We both never run the GB stickers though so maybe that helps!
