RAIDER32 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I didn't like the day I've had with my car, a) Parked a few doors down street, some euro trash that lives there threw food out their window onto my roof. So that needed wiping off, ended up doing聽a hand wash on all the back end with a detailing spray. b) Might have got clocked by a sly Police Camera Van turning on a bend聽at 37/38mph (indicated), It over reads by 3mph so fingers crossed 34/35mph actual doesn't get any attention, sods law I never plugged my dashcam in on that one part of my day. c) The other day I pulled a screw out of my rear tyre, Wasn't leaking any air but the next day the Pressure Warning light came on, Went around the tyres today and it was the front聽tyre that was about 4聽psi off, Pumped them all up to 35psi and reset sensor, hoping that screw didn't knacker the front before it got stuck in the back d) Lost a small clip into the engine bay while changing the bulbs, it聽didn't fall through as there is an undertray, Spent聽about an hour trying to find out what it's called for the part number, this little bugger is 拢2.99. Thought I did well after I got 拢5 off the bulbs, now聽I've just added 拢3 back to the cost lol, Must remember to ask the garage to look for it on next oil change.

Definitely fingers crossed there. I thought my local force always applied the 10%+2mph guideline. - I got done at 36 in a 30, as did our village Postmaster. However, talking to a neighbour the other day, she'd received a NIP for 33 in a 30 only 2 miles away (same force) so they must have been taking a hard line that day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I got caught by a real sly camera couple of years ago 35 in a 30 between Morley聽and Huddersfield. It was a camera facing the other direction, but as I found later, these new cameras have a sly little camera at the back that catches you as you approach. Went on the awareness course which I really enjoyed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
