Just one to think about....

Have just been caught in one of the MoDs finest Ford Galaxy Pool Cars doing 83mph on the A303 (dual carriageway, sunny, no other car in sight) I had accepted my fine and points and am now driving slower.

What drives me up the wall was speaking to someone who (also in a pool car) had been stopped twice on the same journey on the A38 in Devon by marked cars doing 107mph and 93mph.

Result?

"You should watch your speed more carefully Sir"

No points, no fine.

This does not fit in with the Government/Police theory on speed. No leeway with cameras - why with policeman?

And in addition there is absolutely nothing I can do about it.

Threaders.
