Another £20 bet won from an apprentice

Piss easy £20.

A race from Heathrow to Doncaster. No rules and no speed limits. First one back wins £20

I did it in 2 hours 30 minutes.

He f***ed it up at the M4/M25 junction when he took the M25 Southbound route whilst undertaking me giving the V sign,

Does he know there are an arse load of speed cameras on the southern section that are now activated even when the variable limit is at 70?

Time to have another bet with him as to whether he gets any special mail in the next few weeks >o

There is also the toll of course if he continued around.

I don't think that even one of Adam's apprentices would continue the whole way round the M25 in the wrong direction.

FUCK

That will be me: then-(

I drove from a job in Dartford to Heathrow before OUR race began.

I set the cruse control at 95mph

They'd accidentally turn off to Gatwick, or down the M26.

As well as speeding, you could get done for racing on the public highway?

Do you not have a satnav with the cameras on it?

Crikey. Transits have moved on a bit.

I use CoPilot SatNav (for Android) and that has a rather handy nazi-camera database that's updated fairly regularly.

What gets me is the distribution - Tunbridge Wells has about 2 cameras. Go anywhere near Croydon up the A23 and there are bloody millions of the things.

southern

And presumably each camera is a seperate offence at 3 points/camera so after 4 cameras, 12 points, bye bye licence, thats assuming it's not bye by licence at the first one at 25 mph above the limit...

Having said that "cruse (sic) control at 95" and the M25 doesn't compute.

Maybe for a night time drive, 2 am or something. M25 is well camera-ed though.

IIRC the North Wales police tried that on with someone - the judge said it was a single offence. I last got caught at 96 by a car rather than camera around 8 years ago on the M5 south. It was the standard 3 points and £60. I suspect they were being kind as I'd just got the thing and was wondering how fast it would comfortably go. Over 100 is a ban, I believe.

Having once spent over 8 hours doing A3 to A1 (where I gave up) and back, I agree.

Scudo not Transit.

TBH that one has kept the AA busy.
