New speed cameras trap motorists from space

Featured Replies

Really find this story hard to believe. Currently the speed cameras have to be 'visible' so do any police if they intend to lazer gun u too. So if this DID ever go ahead, which it most likely wouldn't, a whole new law would have to be reinforced. Confused i may be but all i'm saying is ...

I'm moving abroad if this country gets any worse! :roll:

the old tax disc thingy springs too mind "yes I've paid my tax now go fix some pot holes"

why waste my road tax on this rubbish ?!?!?! when you could be fixing potholes for me!

Everytime i swurve to avoid a pothole i get so angry & worked up that the fact theres nothing road tax is going towards that it should be. Its depressing to think lol

amazing isnt it that the government is elected by us and is there to handle the country and to make us prosper

???

yet it seems like this government is so out of touch that they think the people are twats and try there damn hardest to piss us off?? over tax us on EVERYTHING,shitty roads to drive on,speed bumps to stop us every few minutes during our journey,flood the country with immigrants and give them first refusal for our houses,speed cameras so we are checking our speed all paranoid because we get fined and points,bullshit wars so our friends and family can die or lose limbs,even let brussels tell us what we can eat and drink,what shapes are carrots and cucumbers should be ect ect so on and so on as i haven't even touched on it tbh

and while this goes on these mps are getting filthy rich by the day

are they running the country for us or playing lemmings with us?

I think whats more important is...WTF were you doing reading the Telegraph mate.

Got linked to it from another forum :p (an american one if you must know, they find it hilarious :disgust:)

The Telegraph ain't too bad anyhow, no worse than most of the shite tabloid newspapers pump out, cos frankly I couldn't care less about Kerry fuckin Katona..

get ready to book your ticket if the tory's don't get in to power :lol:

this story is in the sun as well, they have a man from the AA saying it's just a natural evolution using technology that is already available. why would they have to bring in new law's? as long as the camera's (they use a number plate recognition system like the specs) are brightly coloured and the area being monitored is clearly signed then what would be any different to how they do the specs camera's?

big brother is watching you

as for it not working, do you really think it would of got to the stage where they are doing trials if they thought it wouldn't work? the system is built by some American company not our government, do you think they would invest millions of their own money into developing the system and blasting satellites into space if they thought it wouldn't work?

reading this makes me feel like guy faulks !!!! ggggggrrrrrrrr where do they get off hitting the motorist , about time everyone stood ground till they actually do something about the roads before we pay our tax

and this is why you should be voting tory, the only one of the big 3 that oppose speed cameras and want to end this big brother style socioty we are living in.

Cameron would just spend all our taxes on makeup for his next election campaign poster.

^^ So keep Labour,then.

Keep mass socialist government who claim right and ownership of the nation and her people,and power over the people. Keep being battery-farmed for the finance to control us on a scale comparable to regimes we're taught to be shocked about. Forget,or ignore,what it was like just two decads ago when we had freedoms we no longer enjoy,when it was normal to be proud of our country and millions flew the flag with pride - and were allowed to do so,before it went from Great Britain to an advertisement for Britain Ltd.

Dont vote for the people running the nation back then. Dont vote Tory. Just dont bother to vote at all,or vote for a party who we cant all vote for so wont win,because either way that'll keep Labour in by default. And dont,never for the next five years,complain about the way you have to live under Labour as a result. Or how the damage will be so great by then that we'll never get our country back.

Its Tory or Labour. Vote tory - or stop fcuking moaning about the damage Labour are doing to us.

i would actually like to get caught speeding (only once) just so that when they look at the pic, i've got one of those "yes I've paid my tax now go fix some fuckin pot holes" or, i'll just take a pic (with my 04/11 taxdisc showing) and send it to them!

hippycrit!

The `SpeedSpike’ system, which calculates average speed between any two points in the network, has been developed by PIPS Technology Ltd, an American-owned company with a base in Hampshire.

i know where i'm going later :ninja::ninja::ninja:

Pips Technology Ltd

York House, School Lane

Chandler's Ford, Eastleigh, Hampshire SO53 4DG

so thats another place to curl one out on thier doorstep jesus ima gonna be shitting loads soon! chilli and a sunday dinner here i come to get loaded!

I thought speed cameras could only be used on roads that have had so many fatal deaths and shit!

And its not a satellite that is the camera!!!! Speed cameras which communicate with each other by satellite are being secretly tested on British roads.

Do u really think i mean't the camera from space? Er no! I was saying that it all seemed very bizarre & a stage too far

Look at this pic of the cameras:

please tell me that was just a poor attempt at being funny?

i'm with mikey on this one, we all know how this country has gone down hill over the last 13 year's and we all moan like fuck about it on here, well here is your chance to do some thing about it. it's now up to you to either do what needs doing or sit back and let things get worse, but if they do then don't complain because you had your chance to to fix this shit and you bummed out.

some thing that's shocked me is the surge in poularity for the lib dems, has any of the people that have just thought 'that nick cleg seems like a nice chap' even seen what they say in their polices? :lol:

for starters they want to bring an end to all prison sentences under 6 months and replace them with community service. so the next time some one scams the shit ot of a load of club polo members, rather than at least getting a short stay at HMP they will get to walk around and pick up some litter 2 hours a week.

rather than getting tough on immigration they want to give any illegal immigrants already here British nationality!

instead of building more nuclear power stations (that even green campaigners agree is the best option available) they want to build coal fired power stations. are these people for real?

the worst thing is that if too many people vote for these idiots then labour stay in power, infact even if labour finish behind the torys and lib dems they could still stay in power. the torys need a majority win to take control, and that is the only way we will get a change for the better, infact that's the only way we have any chance of keeping out of bankruptcy :-(

They are also in favour of the euro.

Pound sterling is about the only thing we have left that is our own.

I've never voted before, and tbh I'm so confused with it all atm i think it will stay that way :lol:

As much as we all moan about Labour and Gordan Brown, I reckon we would be moaning a fuck load more if torys or leb dems got in.

And as for the 'reduces the need for speedhumps' comment. There is already no need for them in most the places they put them, but it hasn't stopped them from continuing to put them in pointless places.

no, it was a typo. he said "vote tory" then later says "don't vote tory" so was being hipocritical.

i'm voting for [political party name here]

average speed cameras are a peice of piss to get around...

anyone been on the A1 recently? theres about 30 miles of 50mph average speed at one point...

every time i go up it i stop in a layby or 'rescue zone' for 10 minutes and roll a cig or something... then i carry on at 70mph.

And as for the 'reduces the need for speedhumps' comment. There is already no need for them in most the places they put them, but it hasn't stopped them from continuing to put them in pointless places.

with you on that... there's a road near me which is a dead end (big wall at the end) and they've put one about 10 metres away from the end haha... you'd have to be a stupid idiot to go fast over it... and a stupid idiot to put it there.

i could rant for ages about politics, but this picture sums up my views quite nicely
