quite right.
just think how many of those perpurtrators of evil would be caught by plod if they wernt creeping around bushes and laybyes on the 75 and surrounding areas waiting to milk the cash cow trucks.
they might actually be able to justify their existence that way by doing something useful for a change.
the 75 is the most truck unfriendly euro route in existence for no other reason than to hound trucks for revenue.
theres accidents on it same as every other truck infested road,but most of them wouldnt be from trucks travelling at 50+ mph.
id be sure theres more caused by trying to get past wazzocks doing 40 and the likes causing frustration and annoyance,hence the a9 being dragged up to 50 same as england.Well if the ferry traffic didn’t drive like morons then they wouldn’t be there, would they?
You previously claimed “entrapment” and still haven’t answered how you claim that. Can you elaborate on that please?
Why is it “revenue” or “cash cow”? The money from fines goes to Westminster, Police Scotland don’t get a penny of it. Doesn’t matter whether they catch one or hundred drivers, no “revenue” goes to them.
As for it being the “most truck unfriendly Euro route”, maybe that’s because the locals that use the A75 or the residents of the villages that the A75 are fed up of the ferry traffic not sticking to the speed limits?
The only trucks that seem to crash into the hedges and fields about month a once on the A75 are usually Irish registered trucks. Probably the lack of brain cells and lack of driving talent because their tip money works out at less than the minimum wage hence the excess speeds.
And in jumps someone else with no experience of driving the 75 as I said earlier during the day the locals will give you plenty of warning about the speed traps as they don’t want to be sitting at 40mph from one end to the other
The locals flash all drivers whatever the vehicle.
The ferry traffic use the A75 late at night when the locals are in bed so they won’t be flashing the ferry traffic about the camera vans that aren’t there at night.
The residents of Crocketford and Springholm are always complaining about trucks exceeding the 30 mph limit through the villages.
New one on me there didn’t realise that they had cancelled all the daytime sailings
If you have had any dealings with the D & G police you would soon realise that they make the Met police look like the most politically correct police force in the UK.
