Let's hope so - my buddies back in Blighty have to use GPS camera locators to avoid tickets - it's insane!

There was a similar story while I was living in Cleveland (OH)... A young employee from a local body shop took a customer Porsche 911 TT for an authorized joy ride and totalled it in an out-of-control accident. The owner had to buy a new car for that customer, that must hurt bad. Looks like it's not so different from the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" after all.
This was pretty dumb considering that here are speed cameras everywhere in the UK - it was a moment of insanity that could hve killed him and others and will almost certainly ruin the rest of his life.... dude's going to jail for that one... a Darwin award in the making.
With the state of our jails it's unlikely he'll get a custodial sentence, they've recently sent convicted paedophiles home because of lack of space, unbelievable as it sounds! The previous fastest car speeding conviction saw the guy go down for 5 months.
The road he was caught on was a good quality road with sections of dual carriageway but a road very popular with our police with laser speed guns.
Wow, that's like death by speeding - no way he could have done that and figured he wouldn't get caught!
Don't forget that in the UK they even tried to prosecute an ambulance driver delivering an organ to a transplant patient for driving too fast!!

I certainly don't miss the speed cameras now I'm over in the US - although I do see more RADAR activity over here than I ever saw in Blighty.
It's weird to consider how much the culture has changed in the last 10-15 years. I remember when the average speed on the M1 was 100mph and now people are afraid to do over 70mph.
I once had to do a detour crosscountry after the M6 was closed abruptly at Walsall and I was heading down to London... in the drive across to the M1 it seemed like I was hitting speed cameras every half mile... not funny considering that the detour was unplanned, I had no clue where I was, it was 3am and my flight left at 7am.
You really cannot get away with speeding at all now... way too many cameras. I believe that I read somewhere that there are more cameras per capita in the UK than any other country. pretty scary.
I hear things may be changing - that the money from cameras will no longer stay local, but will go to central Govt.
That will break the cycle of cameras = local speed tax, and should slow the thing down nicely.
Let's hope so - my buddies back in Blighty have to use GPS camera locators to avoid tickets - it's insane!
Although, I hear that the old favorite of black boxes giving automated speeding tickets is back - it will be interesting to see if that passes this time.
I notice when I visit that they seem to obsess about some of the most irrelevent things... it's weird, while refreshing at the same time. Here we obsess about doom and gloom, there they obsess about nothing. Pretty funny.
