Community speed watches

[eggsarascal]

I expect they are probably trained, and hopefully vetted? What about the community speed watch plebs, whats the criteria there?

 

Half day training course and you are a fully qualified pleb.

 

I know about this because we had the proper speeding van operator at a parish council meeting a few months ago trying to convince people of the village it was a good idea........ Not one person volunteered.

They're a nightmare when you've had a few jars.

I saw some the other night and thought they were real cops.

I braked so hard I dropped my joint.

I was told they are trained, many are retired copper, apparently.

 

The camera van blokes are often ex plod on a pension and are trained.

 

The community speed watch are volunteers, pissed on power, they get a mornings tuition.

I'm often tempted to pull over to that bunch of hi vis clad do-gooders and say "if I weren't completely bladdered I'd have an argument with you but I gotta go cos I'm bursting for a leak"

That should wind things up a bit.

The " parish council " volunteers don't have any powers ( I think ) but " Sussex Safer Roads " are not plod but have the camera vans on the bridges over the A27/M27 . I had to do the speed awareness corse coz of them .

I didn't want to push it mate.

It was bad enough explaining the dead rent boy and kilo of rhino horn in the boot.

They aren't parish council volunteers, they are people from the parish that volunteer to do the 'job'. Usually people who are retired. I can see an opening here for you mate.
