3 points £60 waiting for me....



  Shhh


In the car last night coming back from Coningsby came cross country through Chesterfield hoping to goto Buxton as its shorter, take a wrong turn in the car so do a U turn, back too a roundabout and the way i should be going. Feel a bit pissed off so boot the car, doing about 38mph in a 30...and look up too see some white lines on the road, slam on just as i hit them, maybe doing 40mph now, so down too 35ish.. and no flash. Pull the car over, walk back and there was a Truvelo camera facing away from me (so to get the rear of the car) but with normal road markings, these normally have 3 white lines next to them too pick the car out. Road had 4 cameras in the spate of a mile, on the road that leads into the cat and fiddle. The camera was burnt, looks like someone had put a tyre on it and burnt the camera as it was hard too see.. Cant see the point in fighting it over the camera was burnt, hoping the speedo over reads and i was doing 38ish when i slammed on..so maybe 34-35mph...

But still no reason too speed, my payment waits for me. Tho why is there a 50mph limit on the cat and fiddle...:eek:
 
  don't


just hope that it wasnt working or didnt get you

be lucky though but you never know, let us know if you get anything in the post
 


Is this the same stretch of road that was on a BBC1 road safety programme a few months ago? Loads of bikers use this road and the Cat and Fiddle pub is the meeting point...?
 


^^^I saw this too...looks like quite a dangerous piece of road. Some kid managed to stack his 1 litre Saxo in a ditch while they were recording it iirc.

As for speed cameras, sounds like Captain Gatso got to this one before you did; it didnt flash anyway so I wouldnt worry about it!

  Shhh


The camera was before the cat and fiddle starts, but i made it up for it when i got onto that road. I felt better about the camera when i hit macclesfield. The speed limit is 50mph which is silly in a 182 in 3rd gear...
