I'd just prefer to see more enforcement of bad driving (right hand lane on expressways for no reason, not paying attention to the road through use of phone etc, drifting in and out of lanes etc) that cannot be enforced through cameras. Cameras only target one thing and do nothing to cover the...

Not blaming others at all. No points on my license, and apart from one when I first got my license, which was pure and simple me being young and stupid, have led a blameless life. The issue is not for newer cars. The issue is that the ADRs that specify the legality of whether or not a car...

Which is ridiculous. Especially at freeway speeds. It just shows that motorists are cash cows and little more. Harder penalties in urban environments, softer penalties on freeways. Doing 48 in a 40 zone is a hell of a lot worse than doing 118 in a 110 zone.
