Freedom of Information Act - GATSO Database

Thought you might be interested to know that following the UK Government's freedom of information act implementation 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.

Hope it's useful.

I had no idea that the pictures were so clear. I'm looking forward to the NIP anytime soon. Cheers for the heads-up.

I don't understand that, i've never been to Cleveland and i have been caught at 81mph in a 70.
Is it possible that my car has been cloned
















Must try harder

Top marks I fell for it hook line and sinker

i was quite looking forward to seeing if i had anything coming, was any of the original explaination true? ie you will get a ticket if you are a serial offender at only a little above the speed limit?

Funny how my vintage trials bike that's been in bits for 10 years was caught just recently (along with my kit at the same time) at 73mph in Cornwall!

Didn't think the trials iron was that fast pig, er officer.

Good bit of fun, but I'd be wary of putting anybodies email address into their forwarding link - it could conceivably be used to harvest email addresses.......

It was sent to me by a former police officer but I think the 10 strikes thing is probably a load of B*ll*cks.

Just checked my reg and it seems I was caught speeding in Cambridge on the 21st Feb . When in reality I was in gloucester. It seems I have perfected time travel and teleportation. I didn't know I was that clever.
We'll just have to see what happens then

Very funny, thought it was real myself for a second, but a very similar mail was sent to somebody in work. He thought it was real too and forwarded it to everyone on an all mail post!
He got a bockolling for it
