Yeah, despite my comment above I still think that's bang out of order.

It's reported slightly differently in the local news;

"...162 drivers were caught travelling faster than 70mph in a speed limit that was either 30mph or 40mph."

While "It found 47% of drivers were speeding when travelling in Maidstone Road (40mph), in Station Road (30mph), in the High Street (30 mph) and in Cranbrook Road (40mph).", those four roads link end to end as part of the A229. With that and the 30mph or 40mph, that 162 total could come down to 21 in a 30.


It won't link as desired; you'll have to put Staplehurst in and the road in question is the A229 that runs north-south;

You can also change it to show the last twenty years rather than the default five.

I'm noticing how more and more drivers don't give a toss about 30's and 40's. It fapping frustrating when you're trying to stick to the limit and some bell is 2 inches from your back bumper. The same dickheads who don't understand the rules around the national speed limit either.

This looks fun.

Been around forever, but it just popped up on my youtube list..... who doesnt love a bit of in-car 956 on a Sunday?

Particularly at Spa with the bus-stop.

Seen that before but Christ the run up to Eau Rouge and the overtake (about 2:40 into the clip) is one of the finest racing moves I’ve ever seen.

Pure commitment- cheers Mik...

All the above; ta mik

What’s your greatest achievement...

Well this is pish poor luck (Mirror content);

How's that going to work then? Council officers won't have the legal power to stop a moving vehicle. People won't be legally compelled to identify themselves to a council officer. I see a lot of 'two finger salutes' when they try and enforce that nonsense.
