speeding:o(
bude to widemouth bay road, national speed limit then down to a 40 then down to a 30 by a small shop on a hill, just as i crossed the brow of the hill i was zapped doing 39 in a 30 zone in my dads car
 Hello Hello Hello, did u realize how fast u were traveling when u came over that hill? err 40? yes sir but its a 30 zone there, ooooo pooo, lucky for u sir this is a speed awareness campaign and were not giving out tickets today so its just a warning for you.  . the policeman took details of the car (why?) gave me this speed awareness leaflet and sent me on my way. could have been worse i suppose.

Re: speeding:o(
Nice fair play to them.
They probably took your car details to check that everything you said was genuine. Although I have had my details taken in similar circumstances and they were put on the police computer so that next time you wont just get a warning.

Re: speeding:o(
Probably doing a bit of market testing to see if it would be financially viable to put a scamera there.Lots of tourists who dont know the area to catch out sounds like a real good earner.

Re: speeding:o(
Clocked at 39 in a 30, boohoo, lucky you didn't kill any children! Hardly a terrible crime. I still see drivers all over the place on their mobile phones, don't see them getting stopped. Don't think I have ever objected to someone speeding unless they tear past me doing well over the speed limit!
