My 90 is sorned at the moment. I intend to tax it next month on the monthly payment set up. If the weather turns dodgy I'll keep it taxed. But if things are good, i'll sorn it again. That way I'm only paying for what I'm using, almost.
 
Have to say ...the fixed cameras were used to prove that an individual had travelled down to a place ...three months after the event and showed his route and times which helped in challenging his initial denial that a particular crime had occured at all on first interview...he later modified it once his memory was 'prompted' by photographic proof.

It may be very big brother but you know what ...if you don't do anything wrong you shouldn't be worried imo.
 
the other week, the A12 was being policed in the biggest use of police man power ever along many parts of the A12`s route.
they had an Impressive amount of pulls too -
wernt just cars, but anything on wheels on the road that day.

How did they select there vehicles ????
crystal balls ...praps..
More than 200 vehicles stopped in A12 safety operation

The ANPR cameras do not just pick up untax vehicles but vehicles which are not insured or have no MOT.


No MOT may well mean the car is unsafe to be on the public highway.

You get hit by an at fault uninsured driver then who's pocket is going to be hit?

If your vehicle is taxed, MOT and insured then you have no worries about ANPR cameras.

actually you can claim off a little known thing called the motor insurance bureau. for untraced (ie scarpered) or uninsured drivers.

basically its a pot paid into by the insurance scammers for such events so you dont get hit for a claim. that is if your actually in the know about it and ask the insurance co to claim off that.

that said they take for ####ing ever. im now 2 years post non fault crash as a passenger when the scumbag who hit my old mans car head on at 60 ish in a 30 zone did a runner no insurance on the car, no nothing.

I got paid out after being rear ended by an idiot in a cloned car ... after 8months ...

The vehicle, registered on Pudsey, Yorkshire, it's twin being driven locally by a chap who carried himself and his family as if it was a normal thin g to do ...
Luckily, I obtained photographic proof that the car was in my locale when the owner said it was in Yorkshire, and the police were pleased to get another driver off the streets ...

That's the problem with these ANPR cameras, they do not allow for 'ringers'... and there are going to be more of them ...
 
They cameras may also be picking out uninsured cars parked up.
Under continuous insurance law, you must have tax and insurance even on private land or SORN.

If memory serves me right, you don't need insurance if it is SORN'd only if it is taxed

agree, but big brother can see 1 set of reggos in one town, plus an identical set in another town, both being used at same or simular times....
pull both to do a vin check..
 
I think filling them with petrol and setting fire to them seems more popular lol
That's what happened to our local camera. It was in the middle of a dual carriage way. It stayed burnt out for 2 years until replaced.

They aren't cheap. I think about 20k for a gatso. More for the version that radar detects size of vehicles and applies a lower limit for heavies.
 
The Cameras that really bother me are the ones that Companies have installed in their Employees company vehicles called trackers, they monitor and can film your complete journey, the address you travel too and from. My friend showed me on his tablet and sure enough there was his journey and finally MY house! Now thats BIG BROTHER kind regards. CHRIS:behindsofa:

sadly big brother already tracks you from any device thats swtiched on like phones, satnavs and the like...
if satellites can tell your device where you are, it can tell others the same thing,
same as mobiles, 2 way radios and should imaging most java enabled devices plus more...

1984 was just the start of it all..

Agree with most, however satnavs just receive a constant data stream from the satellites and then computes its own position, no info goes back to the satellites. You cant be tracked by Big Brother by using normal Tomtom / Garmin etc as they are just receivers.
