camera shy number plates

[twostroker]

has any members on here had any good ones before or know where to get them from? im looking for a 2 sets for my car and van i know they arnt strictly legal and frankly im not bothered as im doing 30,000-50,000 miles a year for work and my licence isnt looking its best already but more inportantly im only alowd 3 points on the works insurance and im on 9 but soon to be 6. thing is i do atcualy adhere to the speed limits,wear a seat belt etc but it just seems that there are more and more coppers hiding behind bushes and on slip roads out of sight with speed guns waiting to dish out fines every day .

Dont think most of em work to be honest, the sales crap says they do but nothing beats a number plate flipper or one number out lol.

i dont believe ANY of these "magic" plates work
If u dont wanna get done for speeding............dont speed

SIMPLES!!!! ;D

Its all very well saying dont speed but sometimes you could be as little as 2-3 mph over a limit and trigger a camera. We all get tired or distracted, just look at the school run, enough said. A small lapse in concentration can see you creep up over the limit or an overtaking manoever ( check spelling). Anyone who says they dont speed...................!!!

they allow 2mph+10% for speedo inaccuracies.thats 35mph in a 30

how much do you want ???lol. i never said i dont speed...........i said if u dont wanna get done dont speed ;D

[scoobysal]

I know what the allowance is, but i have heard from folk getting done for 32 33 mph, thats why i put the 2-3 mph up.
Wasnt for one minute suggesting that you speed, behave yourself lol.

mellow they actually give 10% tolerance ie 33 mph in a 30 zone
whats the biggest pain for me is because i drive Mercedes sprinter the national speed limit is only 60mph not 70mph as its a commercial vehicle so even over taking lorries often breaks the law and i spend hours daily on motorways where its safer do do 70mph and flow with the traffic rather that 60mph and hold people up.
my latest fine was 72mph on a national speed limit road which in my opinion was a safe speed considering the road conditions and time (7.05am,dry road,little traffic)
another government scheme to make money and not to make the roads safer in my opinion

gaz i think your right im probaly best investing in a camera detector and paying more attention to the speedo

interesting you have to stick at 60mph on motorways....

I drive a sprinter, speed limit is 70 on motorways!

Goods vehicles NOT exceeding 7.5 tonnes.

Built up areas = 30mph
Single carriageways = 50mph
dual carriageways = 60mph
Motorways = 70mph
