Speed camera pictures online!
Not sure where to post this, it seems to fit in two sections.
Did you know that recent Government legislation changing the Freedom of Information Acts gives you access to speed camera offences registered within the last twelve months and placed now on a freely accessible website?
Did you know that every time your car goes even over a mile or so over the speed limit, it is registered and placed on the database?
They only send you a ticket if you are way over, and (here's the rub!) if you receive over 20 "near misses".
You can now check how many you have against your car's registered number.
Check this page
http://www.e-database.co.uk/
It will ask you for a password - but just click on the "need a login" link, and you'll be given one in a pop-up window. In the top right hand corner there is a "click-on" window, and it even shows the picture taken by the camera!

It also works if you don't use an actual licence number.
Of course, if the location of the 'offence' was even remotely nearby I might even have 'worried' for a nano-second.
I'm sure there has been a better implementation of this before.

Sorry - assumed it was just a link someone found.
Of course if it was someone's 'demo', then I'm sorry for having been so brutal in my condemnation.
P.S. I reckon it could be quite scary with a few little tweaks

Re: Speed camera pictures online!
From that site.
The best and most legal way to protect yourself is us a good GPS speed camera locator with built in laser detector.
Radar detection is almost not even worth having now due to the number of false alerts and the unlikelyhood of seeing a mobile radar these days, plus not all cameras use radar and you will read below via our Guide.
Wrong.... obey the speed limits, is "the best and most legal way " , what awful grammar as well.
