Chancer Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Dont rush to reregister your car, have an inability to speak French etc etcWorked for me initially, I could barely speak french but couldn't resist trying with the Gendarme after he said "you drive SO fast" by asking if he really wanted to pay me a compliment.Now if you want to know how to avoid paying speed camera fines, congestion charge, parking tickets etc in England I think most of us already have that ability!

Dick Smith Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 If he's board (especially twice), then perhaps Dogwood is really Plywood? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoddy Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 This reminds me of a friend who, caught for speeding on her first day in a new job in Cincinatti. She did her best English eyelash fluttering girly-wirly, "Oh I'm so sorry, I'm new in your wonderful country" act and he let her off.The next day in the same place at the same time - he didn't.Hoddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Is it true that speed cameras will miss you if you are doing over 170mph? I seem to remember something of the sort being tried on TopGear some years ago. They used a Lambo for the experiment but I don't recall if it worked.

Pierre ZFP Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 It did work on Top Gear. As you say, at about 170 mph it missed the car completely. Amusing as it is, i don't think I would take TG as gospel. I seem to remember the UK speeding record is 185mph set by a motorbike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I vaguely recall fragments of an almost certainly apocryphal tale I was once told of a policeman, a speed gun, and a jet fighter flying just above one of the roads crossing Salisbury Plain. The speed supposedly recorded was preposterous - really hope it was true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 It was a TVR.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ph-qv4gYAE8By the number of cars I see in the ditches next French roads, 90Km/h in a straight line is too much for many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
