I don't understand the attractionSmaug says: Ricky Gervais. Lesbian pr0n. Going into a crowded bar, purely because it's crowded. All these things seem to be popular with everybody else, but I just can't work out why. What leaves you cold just as much as it turns everyone else on?

there are far better ways of challenging the authority than allowing yourself to get points on your licence.or do you think that if you fight the law by breaking it you're being intelligent?
i don't think a 40 zone on a straight bit of duel carriageway is appropriate (generally) but i don't think that doing 60 down it and getting clocked is at all bright.

Perhaps notbut if you fight the fine - you will usually win, and then that is logged and catalogued.
How else would you fight to get the limit changed to a more appropriate level?
I fought 11 tickets (yes, some were deliberatly incurred by me for this purpose) on one stretch of road. This stretch of road was 60mph - quite appropriate for the level of traffic/houses etc... One night at around midnight a chap hit and killed an elderly woman and her dog. He was doing an estimated 130mph (according to the report). Shortly after that the limit was changed to 40 and a camera put up.
Would that 40 sign have stopped him doing 130 at midnight? I seriously doubt it.
Anyway, each of those 11 tickets were thrown away - I got not one single point or fine.
Six weeks ago, the limit was raised to 60mph.
