    haha thru the haze a funny thought popped in my head.. you think they will give you speeding ticket if you are not on a vehicle as such.. i.e. a pushbike downhill? or rollerskates with rocketpack on ur back.. good for 120mph. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZITrOaVra8

    You are counted as a pedestrian on roller skates, even those little drift trikes, pedestrians do not have a speed limit. Bicycles do not count as pedestrians and they can be booked.

    If safety cameras are supposed to be located at accident blackspots, I guess this one is positioned just about right

    Thumbs up

    This exact thing happened to one of the young fellas over here just recently, but it was in response to an Omega coming the other way! Cue careless use, speeding ticket, bike meets road at 100k+ etc.. Biker cop gave him an extended earbashing as well LOL!

    "read what Steve says. He's right."
    "What Steve said pretty much summed it up."
    "I did axactly as you said and it worked...!!"
    "Wow, Great advise there DB."
    WTB: Hyosung bikes or going or not.
