Speed camera vans

Since I have two cars and two bikes, how do you want me to refer to them? Pinkie & Perkie for the cars and Mork & Mindy for the bikes?

No, they will be referred to as Merc, Toyota, Tiger and Daytona. If that's a source of either amusement or annoyance for you, it's your issue.

I don't bat an eyelid every time you mention you're an off road rallying god.

That's cuz he is a rally god whereas you own a Merc, nuff said :whistle:

And Sven just sold a BMW and bought a Golf. So what?

What do you drive? Not that I really give a stuff.

It's a motorcycling forum, people talk about motoring issues, that means mentioning their bikes and their cars.

Some people really have issues.

What would happen if you braked very very hard (possibly even almost an emergency stop) if you saw a camera or speed gun? Assuming you were in full control and it couldn't be deemed dangerous or careless driving, presumably there is nothing they could do?

Radar cameras like the Gatso work on two separate distance readings over a set time to work out speed, and take two readings hence the double flash. If there's too big a difference in speed between the two readings they abort the test, so you can foil those by standing on the brakes. Laser cameras I don't know.

Mike54 actually is an off road and rallying God, though....
Edit-Bob1L- you beat me to it!

And I actually have a Merc....

And a nice 5 bed house in the countryside with great views

And a beautiful blonde wife

And a great kid

And a successful career with a six figure salary

And a big smile on my face

Anyone with issues with that....

Normal convention is to only count the figures to the left of the decimal point, Ralph...

Laser cameras I don't know.

Without actually looking it up I think they work on the doppler effect

Was that the best you could think of?
