Variable Speed Limit Cameras - M1 Nottingham

No, I'd just ask if I could lease a new leg. It will be cheaper...

The trouble is it comes with a free Heather Mills as a sweetener...

But why limit your idea just to road use ? Why not apply your theories to all public services and those who use them ? For example, when people go to A&E they could be made to produce their P60 to see how much income tax they pay. Those who pay a lot would be given priority as those who pay the most should always get most in return. People with low-paid jobs would be made to wait whilst students, those on benefits, carers, pensioners and other non-income tax payers could be thrown out into the car park with a sticking plaster.

It's only fair.

Quite right too. That way, people of most use to society will be back to being of most use in the quickest time. Sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

So all the fat cat bankers (and I could add quite a few more highly paid jobs but need to be careful) can get on screwing this country up while teachers, nurses, fireman etc, people who actually do some good to the community aren't able to continue providing a service? Sounds great.

I seem to remember that on another thread someone posted a reply from the Highway Agency regarding the M25 saying that when no variable speed limit is displayed, the cameras do not monitor speed (or at least, no fines are issued for speeding).

I've always taken the view that if active or apparently passive, they are there to also make money. I therefore usually set the cruise control and potter on.
