Out of interest, is there a better way to be a complete and utter W***er, than being boss of a speeding camera firm?

eh?

there is a speed limit for each road. choose to exceed it and get caught, then expect to be punished.

he is doing nothing wrong by selling/supplying/operating cameras.

tbh I don't think they are harsh enough, he got 6 points, a 6 month ban and a £340 fine. Not enough really.

Surely he new the camera was there

He got done by plod, not a camera.

If he'd been caught by a camera, do you think he would have tried to prove they were in-accurate and couldn't be relied on???

I was thinking this when I went past one ( on the right side of the speed limit ) I assume these things have to be calibrated if so how often ?

and used by a trained technician.

I also wandered about how much from each 'customer they catch ' goes to Serco beacase I put my bottom dollar that they are not making a loss.

He was caught by a traffic bobby at the side of the road, not by a camera. Still as said, break the speed limit you take your chances.

Ironic though.

Pete.
