1108038	2010-06-08 22:36:00	I noticed an automatic assumption it was me that was driving and me that was speeding. Wrong on both counts and the car was not registered to me but was in may care due to the owner selling it. I could take the blame bit why should I? Had enough doubt on the reliabilty before seeing the photo. No speed strips on the road another reason to doubt? Second vehicle in photo heading opposite direction not very clear on first inspection of photo?	coldfront (15814)

Second vehicle in photo heading opposite direction not very clear on first inspection of photo? So you didn't drive the car? What I have seen is that if the car is deregistered and someone steals it, it's still your property, register does not define "ownership". A car that is unregistered does not automatically become no ones property. Technically, if the car was dumped somewhere dangerous and it had to be towed without delay or notice to the owner, there is a fine line who is responsible for the bill ...... I think unless the buyer signs the change of ownership it's still yours or until you take it to the crushers ....... Even if the car's been sitting unregistered in your backyard for 20yrs. It's still yours. It belongs to you. This is with legal advice from the Citzens Advice Bureau - with advice from a volunteer lawyer.	Nomad (952)
1108042	2010-06-09 00:20:00	Money making my ass, its to deter speeding drivers. There is an opt out scheme with speed camera tickets that is dont speed and it wont trigger the camera. I know it will require a lot of intellect to work this out but it its true.	prefect (6291)
1108043	2010-06-09 00:22:00	That's what I think. If you don't speed, you don't get a ticket. Would you speed in your driving test? Instead of a fine you want the slammer instead? :confused: Maybe don't worry about if you speed? Maybe do as you wished? Perhaps you want a cup cake if you speed?:confused:	Nomad (952)

Perhaps you want a cup cake if you speed? :confused: It is also true to say that radar ( actually microwave ) can give false readings. They can read speeds of vehicles going in the other direction and just once I picked up a low flying aircraft going about the business of top dressing. There was no car in sight so it had to be the plane.	Sweep (90)

I know it will require a lot of intellect to work this out but it its true. :thumbs: It's all too simple! :thumbs: Clearly logic evades some people. It's only a "money-making scheme" if somebody deliberately breaks the law. Don't break the law, problem solved for everybody ;)	Chilling_Silence (9)
1108046	2010-06-09 04:20:00	But then where are they gonna get their money from?? If nobody speeds? it has to come from somewhere	Gobe1 (6290)
1108047	2010-06-09 04:49:00	Re: But then where are they gonna get their money from?? If nobody speeds? it has to come from somewhere That'll never be a problem. Plenty of bird-brains out there who think that rules they don't like should not apply to them.	Scouse (83)
