    about average speed???

    so if you were to go through a 100km zone and were say speeding a lil...

    and when you go through the next camera wouldnt this only work on a highway because all the different ways you could go through different roads ect and would different speed zone effect this were would they give you the fine???

    for example your average speed was 110km for example and there are a few 50km zones in there so we are goin to charge you for 60km over the speed limit???

    Isn't it a brilliant way of raising revenue?
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Best thing about transponders is how their output can be so easily tampered with, wouldn't take much to create a 'simulator' that would just output false data all day long, so regardless of what you're doing, all they receive is you riding in circles, doing under the speed limit...

    At my old work not long ago, one of our trucks GPS tracking system started acting up, first we knew about it was our head office calling up wondering why they were tracking our 11 Ton truck doing 370kph

    I've gone off bikes. Too slow.

    Got any jobs?

    We ended up telling them the system couldn't be right, that once the truck got up to 250kph it went like a dog :-)

    Whilst I don't doubt this is true, there is plenty of evidence to support daverids theory that they are building the system around us.

    I'm not following your point. Isn't the point of a corporation to demonstrate profitable behaviour for their shareholders?

    A corporation or a monopoly?

    I'd just find another biker with a bike that is close enough to look identical, grab a second number plate for the bike (someone stole the first one sir), and throw that on the back of their bike.

    Then we'd both go and get snapped by a camera at 115 or something fast enough to get snapped, slow enough that it is still moderately affordable. Twenty minutes apart and maybe 100km/h between us... "yes officer, I really think that a two-fiddy bandit can reach, let alone maintain three hundred km/h. Either it would point out that the system wasn't infallible, or I'd get a ticket that I would frame on the fucking wall.

    Win/win for me, because that is how much a 1984-esque idea like this would enrage me.

    (Of course, this ignores the radio chip idea, but I'm sure with a bit of ingenuity a similar plan could be devised.)

    Why are goverments so fucking stupid. Just make the damn speed cameras with cameras on each side with a sort of time delay in between that alters depending on speed. Problem solved, a photo from both sides results in a number plate.

    Any holes in that?
