Thumbs down Be VERY carefull on Merseyside today 19th May

The Police are having a Speeding day
Every officer in the force is watching for speeding cars
So, did I see any speed traps outside the locqal schools just now? NO
You can bet they will be on nice straight roads where they are likely to collect the most fines. Like the local dual carriageway where I keep seeing them where it drops from 70 to 30 they are just over the line
Theives, & scumbags - you can do what you like today

Cheers Mike

Caught the end of something about it on the news so wondered what was going on. I'm in Liverpool quite a lot at the moment

saw the un-marked Scooby again yesterday that got me last time, sitting outside Broughton, waiting to get someone

Unmarked cars are just so unfair, why should they be allowed

I sat at 30 all the way to work. Passed two Mobile camera vans. Funny thing though is I had some guy right up behind me in his Merc. He then decided to overtake me... just as we approached a camera van

Saw a crowd of police round a camera on Edge Lane (bottom of the hill at the end of Wavertree Park), three bikes & a couple of cars. They weren't there when I went past an hour earlier, I reckon they were expecting to catch loads of people, it's pretty easy to be going over 30 there.
