    One I saw was a couple of years ago on section of dual carriageway approaching a set of lights with a left turn filter lane.

    I was a couple of cars behind a white Transit van in the left lane queing to turn left. An old 3 series BMW comes tanking up the right hand lane, cuts in front of the Transit van right at the last minute to take the left turn.

    I get to the turn off and a few yards down the road pass the aforementioned BMW and Transit parked up at the side of the road with the drivers having a quiet chat.

    Unfortunately for the BMW driver the van he cut up had the letters P O L I C E down the side and several members of Thames Valley Constabulary on board. Oh dear... :D:D

    I had a similar experience a while back on a road that i knew for sure had a pc with a hand held radar gun. (i had passed it in the opposite direction a bit earlier)
    On my way back i kept bang on the speed limit whilst an impatient idiot behind tried to hurry me up.
    When i was close to the speed trap he thought it would be good to overtake as the road was clear and bombed past despite my sticking my arm out to try and warn him to stay back.
    He was doing about 45-50 mph in a 30mph limit.
    As he pulled in front of me he immediately saw the copper stood in his high vis jacket but it was too late. He flagged him down. :D
    I bet he wished he had been a bit more patient. lol

    I did laugh when a motorbike shot past me and triggered a double flash from the camera on the opposite side of the road. Ho Ho, I thought, bet you weren't expecting that.

    A couple of seconds later, it dawned on me that the camera was facing the front of the bike, where they don't display registration numbers. That biker knew exactly what he was doing :mad:

    Yep. Though I suspect that if you did that every day, one day there'd be a copper with a hairdryer on the right side of the road. So, as a biker, I'd have to say pull that stunt with caution. Or better still, don't take the piss out of speed limits. You can go through the things 10mph faster than the limit anyway, without setting them off.

    I can do better than that. Mate buys himself a sports car and driving in a 30 mile limit stop at lights - to be confronted by some idiot shouting how his car could beat it off the lights and moaning we had borrowed Dad's car.

    (Pity he did not notice the speed trap quarter of a mile up the road)

    So he starts revving his engine like a prize tw*t and then leaves half his tyres behind and a cloud of smoke as he sped off

    We left sensibly and tell you what his face was an absolute picture as we passed him being pulled over.
    ;)

    There is an underpass I use regularly that has a 30pmh limit (two lanes)

    The police use their hand held radar guns. They can definitely see you before you can see them (they use a wall to 'lean' on (hiding?)) ;) The amount of drivers that fly down this underpass giving me dirty looks as a poodle along at 30mph.

    :eek::cool:
