Re: Skater triggers a speed camera
I've set off the exact same camera on a push bike overtaking cars as I go, tis dead easy, there's a huge hill beforehand.

Re: Skater triggers a speed camera
points on a push bike? surely not, its not a registered vehicle, doesnt pay tax, doesnt need a licence to ride

Re: Skater triggers a speed camera
True I do have a licence, never occured to me that I could get points on the push bike though. At worst I would have expected to be pulled over and given a sharp look by an officer asking "What do you think youre doing?"
Shall try to be un-identifiable as possible next time and smile for the camera |

Re: Skater triggers a speed camera
Yup tis true.
You can be done for being drunk in charge of a pedal bike and get points on your licences or even for "Pedalling furiously"! |

Re: Skater triggers a speed camera
If someone tried to penalise me for going too fast on a bike/roller-skates/soapbox racer etc i'd tell them where to shove them..
