Default speed cameras

Thought you might be interested to know that following the UK Government's freedom of information act you can now get access to ALL speed camera offences registered in the last 12 months.
Did you know that every time your car goes past a speed camera, even 1mph over the set limit, it is registered and put on a database? You only get a ticket if you are way over the limit or, (this is the bit that I didn't know) if you receive over 10 near misses, you will be classed as a serial offender and get a ticket the next time you go just over the limit.
This is why you hear of people being done for 34mph in a 30mph limit area, whilst others doing 39 do not. You can check what has been registered against your vehicle at the following web address:

UK Speed Camera Database. Check to see if you have been caught speeding

Just enter your car registration. If there is any data on your vehicle you can click on the camera window to see a copy of the photograph.
Hope it's useful
ok whos been caught

Yup, you've been set up. Your mates have well and truly got you there, but all is not lost, you too can have fun and set your other mates up easily.

Just click on the image on the right and fill in the mailer. It's as simple as that. We dont collect any information from you when you do it. We hate spammers as much as you.
Help keep the site alive and send it on to your friends.. Stitch them up!
