Hi All,

You might find this useful or not....

You might be interested to know that following the UK Government's freedom of information act you can now get access to ALL speed camera offences registered in the last 12 months. Did you know that every time your car goes past a speed camera, even 1mph over the set limit, it is registered and put on a database? You only get a ticket if you are way over the limit or, (this is the bit that I didn't know) if you receive over 10 near misses, you will be classed as a serial offender and get a ticket the next time you go just over the limit.

This is why you hear of people being done for 34mph in a 30mph limit area, whilst others doing 39 do not. You can check what has been registered against your vehicle at the following web address:

www.i-database.co.uk

Just enter your car registration. If there is any data on your vehicle you can click on the camera window to see a copy of the photograph.

The photographic quality with these new type speed cameras is so clear, you cannot deny it in an open court.

being a cynic, i put a plate in from a car i know was scrapped years ago. Sure enough, there's 1 (ONE) recent speed offence(s) registered against it. Last week. In my area.

Sorry, but it's a fake website - gets the area info from your ip and makes something up. Not sure how it's a scam, but it must be.
