    I think everyone knows about VASCAR skivenov, but what does that have to do with your comments about, "the calibrated speedo"? Questioning the proof of calibration, when, where, and by whom was the commonest way of challenging such prosecutions. You very rarely hear of them now, simply because the case will be challenged.

    Seems popular skivenov to spout out unconnected, irrelevant garbage and then pretend you have a clue about what you are talking about and then resort to calling someone a troll. Keep up the good work.

    Thanks for your flames.

    What's relevant is that he was using speed as an excuse for a tug to see what was the OP was up to. If the ticket book had come out, that's another story.

    What isn't relevant is a full explanation of the various methods by which a prosecution can be brought about for speeding, and what can be used for purely indicative purposes, so I chucked in a quick simplification of the calibrated speedo.

    I have as much of a clue as you think I do, your choice, your decision, I ain't over botherred, but I'm happy to nod, smile, pat you on the head and agree.

    Perhaps if you spent some time actually correcting your rubbish about the calibrated speedo (I know you would actually have to take the trouble of researching and learning something) it would give some credence to your posts. Keep lobbing in nonsense, it fills the pages and helps weed out their value on more important threads.
