There is actually a way to get past these types of speed cameras without getting
caught, at least there is here in Sweden. That is if you're riding a
motorcycle. In
Sweden motorcycles only need to have a small vehicle numberplate at the back,
and
there is no way you can identify a rider wearing an integral helmet with visir.
A
positive identification of the vehicle is not enough. Without a positive
identification of the driver as well there is nothing the police can do about
it.
Isn't the same in Britain? There really is no justice with these speed cameras.
The
usually worst speed maniacs on the road get's free...
(I hope I haven't offended any motorcycle riders here by this. Hell, I used to
be one
myself...)
