I'd rather they did that than make me have a hideous monstrosity of a front number plate on my bike.

Traffic police have called for the new cameras because of the difficulty in identifying motorcycles which tend to have their registration number on the back of the machine.

I know old bikes have plates on the front (though not front facing) but do any have front facing plates and no rear plate?

The one in portmouth on the eastern road has been turned around so it rear facing.

Bloody nothants police they have the specs cameras there full time as well don't they

I'm REALLY glad they are doing this, I feel safer already.... I'm sure this will cut down the number of accidents considerably.... B0LLOX fine chasing muther f.......!!!!!

Hmmm, I wonder how much it'll cost to do all these conversions.. Oh well, at least the tax payer will only have to pay for the first hundred or so... The carefully hidden ones behind signs or just after blind corners will pay for the rest... TW@'s

To be honest I never actually fly past speed camera's. Don't care if they can see the plate or not. It's like tempting fate.. But still, I don't like the idea of being targeted

Ooh I used to live off the Welly Road - Glad I moved.

Nothing like riding slowly through a speed camera in second gear, and revving the nuts off it the other side.
