Whoops! I shall be on the lookout. That was the Wednesday; en route to Mont St Michel, from memory.

 

[Dan!]

Are you going to put it in the toaster?
It's the right thing to do

 

[Zep]

I got a nice speeding fine through from France yesterday . Did anyone else get one ?

Follow Spart's lead, and just put your toaster under the letterbox.

Sparts - we should swap toasters. I have the same one but in dog-knob red.

Oh dear ........
I didn’t get anything yesterday but who knows what will arrive over the coming weeks ........

Do our police get anything from speeding French drivers?

 

[2b1ask1]

No as only the UK in the whole of the EU has registered keeper liability, all other EU countries do it the other way so unless stopped at the side of the road and the driver is identified there is no come back so we are the muppets! EU legislation is such that keeper information is shared throughout the EU. There is no guarantee that even after Brexit this will be revoked but I bloody hope so!

Pussies - MAF and I got done at 121KM/h. Nice letter today!

 

[Felonious Crud]

Those French have certainly ramped up their 'diligence'.

Why were you on that road?

 

[Zep]

I heard the post and rushed downstairs to join in. Nothing!

In case anyone wants to see where they got caught by Le Plod. The link shows the camera we were caught on, but you can input anywhere in France to see where they are

Don't worry I bet someone will have more...a lot more!

Talking to a friend of mine who organises bike (of the motor variety) tours around Europe, and as he came back through France the other week was warned that Le plod were targeting back roads, as the yellow jackets have burned a lot of the fixed cameras, thet are desperate to get some cash coming in, some people have even been done from the air, (drone or helicopter, not sure which), and they have up to a year to issue tickets.

But who? Oh yes...

 

[Scaf]

As a matter of interest are they mainly forward or rear facing cameras in France -

 

[jasst]

Do you get points on your licence, or is it just a fine?
