Looks like Steve and Kevins double act is failing to work, I wonder if this meeting will decide that the medicine is not working, so lets double the medicine

Twice in as many days this week, I've been passed by REAL nutters on NSL Cumbrian "A" roads. Once on the A595 just on the way out of Carlisle and again on the A66. These are two of CSCP's "favourite" roads. These guys weren't just being "a bit rash" they were reall yasking for trouble. In both cases they were going FAR too fast for me to even read the number plate before they were out of range.

As far as I'm concerned, CSCP's efforts have been a spectacular failure and I only wish their forum was still live so I could tell them so. They'll sit there all day on the motorway bridges clocking people doing 79 on a dry empty M6 but they're never around to catch these guys. I wonder which ones cause the accidents?!

Maybe you should wonder, or maybe not, which ones make the most CASH!

Yesterday on the way back from Barrow, a silver Honda Civic with 4 occupants (elderly) was holding up traffic through Swarthmoor and Ulverston - then at the Traffic lights by Greenodd, just drove straight in to the coned section - with the lights CLEARLY on red, several seconds before he got there!!! :o

NO cameras though, except the fixed ones at Witherslack!
