There was an article in MCM about a year ago - you only need to travel in excess of 159MPH to beat the camera..

It think to be sure of beating the camera you need to be doing in excess of 350 mph yes 350 then by the time the second flash goes off yuo wil be out of the range of the camera.

Or simply have an unregistered vehicle... they only catch us who obey the law funnily enough...

yeah i agree - there are simpler ways, no plate or fake plate and dont register the vehicle...

they're not interested in catching criminals.

i think this whole bank hiest think is great. It means the police are actually doing their job instead of handing out meanial traffic tickets. Now they are hot on the case, kicking in doors, using helicopter raids and running around rolling over the bonnets of their cars while diving for cover from bullets while sporting afros and wearing chequered flares (or at least it's not long now) i just think everyone should try and commit a high profile crime that dosn't really hurt anyone and gives the police somthing intresting to do.
