Well as this forum is for a 'local' area (From more or less the Scottish Border down to God-knows-where!!) Why not post on here the roads that have speed fixed speed cameras or where mobile units have their favorite places?? That way we all drive more carefully down them and avoid points and fines!!
But wait on....I'm just gonna check we are allowed to do this, as I've got a feeling it might be 'naughty' and I don't fancy PC Plod slapping my wrists!! If it's a WPC then I might let her slap my bum tho...
OK, have checked around and it seems that I ought to be putting a disclaimer on this....so here goes...
"In no way, shape or form are the following links designed to condone speeding or irresponsible driving. They are to make people drive more safely, and to make the roads more enjoyable to drive along. Any persons who drive irresponsibly do so at their own risk and it has bugger all to do with me."
There we go. Take a look or don't, it's your decision!!

Most sites have links to specific areas, so find yours and take a look if you feel the inclination, but if you get done for speeding it's on your head, not mine!!

Thats what it said, can't quite see the point of the new 50 limit they put in when they narrowed it. Its fine when its busy but when its empty? I'm guessing one will go under the railway bridge at the start/end of the 50 zone.
just incase nobodys noticed em yet theres 2 new speed cams just been put up on the motorway (m74 i think) between the first and last carlisle junctions, north and southbound
alrite, my last post here's out of date now! whoops! they've just put in massive road works there so they must just be temporary roadwork speedcams
is any1 on here from carlisle? was there yesterday an saw a yellow zr wi mg graphics, looked nice

One's been up on the A186 (just before it becomes the A69) between The Fox and Hounds and The Denton. Thing is they still haven't put the camera on it and there are not road markings, only a matter of time. Seems like an odd place to put one cos no one speeds there anyway.
WTF is the speed limit on the A1058 (east bound) between Jesmond Dene and the Railway Bridge. A while back it kept changing from 70 to 50 and back but now both sets of signs are up :confused:

For anyone in the Boro area there is a favourite of the Mobile traffic cops on wilderness way (Stockton Road) past McMillan School, the road that runs parallel to the A66 between Boro And stockton, they like that one as it is a nice straight quiet stretch,
