@@bobdillion440 your only annoyed because you are not being nominated for a MBE , your mummy took you to th doctors and he awarded you ADHD , but keep trying your best and if you achieve you too could be nominated. Bless
@@arwlyx well like the guy in the video clearly said " if you're trying to slow people down then put a sign up to tell drivers that the mobile camera is around the corner". Don't get me wrong I don't condone speeding, I also don't condone entrapment or my hard earned money paying some guy to sit in a layby all day trying to sting people for more hard earned cash when they could be out finding and arresting real criminals. ✌️
@@vinihedgepig lol it's like you didn't even read my comment, I'm saying I don't agree with speeding, or wasting money paying some dude to sit on his ass all day ( usually in in unpopulated areas like the dual carriage way or some little country road with no houses about) Don't get butt hurt about it, everybody is entitled to their own opinion, in my opinion your opinion doesn't matter so I won't be losing any sleep over it 😂
@@mrmalavey1098 How is it the Police's fault that someone is doing stupid shit? I honestly never understood this thought process, "ohh they're always out to fuck ya!" Maybe don't break the law? If they're framing you or making shit up? Yeah sure, there's a ton of scumbags on this planet unfortunately, but how is it the police's fault that you're speeding, possibly putting lives of people that are living by the law in danger for your own interest? I just never fully understood how people connect "keeping the law in check" with "fucking hardworkers over", you having a 9-5 job like everyone else doesn't entitle you to drive like a wanker?
Lived in Germany for years and a lot of the time they set speed cameras up they would broadcast their whereabouts on local radio which gave way to little vigilant squads of locals going out with signs who would stand 150 mts in front of the camera warning you of the oncoming camera,cops didn't take kindly to this,but as one sign went down another would appear 130 mts in front of the camera,fucking brilliant. Keep it up...
I love it when he said “just put some signs up to say he’s there that will make people slow down” the copper had no comeback because its perfectly true.
So polite, the British. We could use some more of that decency here in the US. You each said your piece without anyone getting a window smashed out, no yelling, tazering, handcuffing, etc. Here in the US, that would have ended much differently I'm sorry to admit. Good for you sir.
Trust me the British police are no saints them being nice is just a facade to make you lower your guard and say something that will incriminate yourself. Notice how this cop was attempting to get the van driver to say he was intentionally blocking the speed camera van which would be an offense. Also to add they have a very patronising tone when they get mad and speak to you like a naughty child, I'd honestly rather be shouted at rudely and threatened to be killed if I don't stop dicking around like the US cops do.
I know you wrote that ages ago but did you miss the bit at the start where you could hear the tosspot of a so-called cop try to enter the car without the driver's consent?
I plead with people to learn the law (codes of practice) so when you find yourself in front of these money collectors you can educate them on there job there job, it is not to catch speeders its to catch drug dealers, pedophiles, rapist, murderers and abusive, violent, thieving people, the scum of society basically, not to fine innocent people of this country. Good work man keep it up 👍🏻
It’s obviously a typo you muppet. Use your power of deduction and try and figure out what I meant. The rest of the world did, I’m guessing you’re a little slow so you found it a bit tough. I wish you well my slow friend. Keep your head up and stay strong
@@jayc4880 On a global forum such as this, we only have the words that others type upon which to base literary exchange. Press either the wrong keys, or not enough and accurate communication fails. It is not my fault that you failed to check and rectify your shortcomings. To expect others to guess what you 'really' meant is somewhat foolhardy.
I:'m guessing that neither you nor the people loving your little stunt have had to deal with a car full of mangled teenagers and all the lives destroyed as a result of speeding. So easy to take a pop at those who spend their working day trying to keep people safe. Really going for the popular vote there, and you've probably made many people think it's good, and some kind of nice little challenge, to speed on our roads. Good work sir!
You guessed right but then again explain to me how setting up a speed camera 50 meters before the speed limit jumps is anything other than easy money? I don't like people speeding in and around built up areas. Show me a speed camera there and they will have my full support, nears schools would be fine. This one was positioned purely to catch people out approaching a faster speed limit. He was also parked in a bus stop, causing busses to park on the main road near a corner. He was a bigger danger than anyone
B B what a stupid comment one of these vans hidden behind a bus or parked in a lay-by on a busy duel carriageway is going to stop an accident happen in fact because drivers hit their breaks and then spend the whole time looking at their speedos I’d say they were more likely to cause accidents!! Try making a foi request to your local police to see how many accidents have happened where a mobile speed camera is sat I have seen several!!
@@radstockben9355 fatal collisions happen everywhere, the A1 dual carriageway in Northern Ireland has seen more fatalities than any other road. Also, in the vast majority of occasions these vans are positioned in specific locations after an analysis of vehicle speeds and deaths and serious injuries in a particular area is carried out, so they are a direct response to poor and dangerous driving.
B B no they are not none of the scamera vans or even bikes parked in accident black spots in this area they don’t park near schools they park in 20mph trading estates and big roads looking to catch people a couple of miles over the speed limit I agree with them if they were parked in areas such as schools and black spots but they don’t they park in areas where they think they can catch the few doing a couple of miles over without realising they are doing it
Can we take a minute to thank that officer for not overreaching? What with the way things are going, cops that follow the law are good to see. EDIT: When they know they are being filmed.
My Dad got one of these moved on once, it was parked clearly obstructing an exit to a commercial premises, he told them they couldn't park there and needed to move on, they did and never came back, that spot has been speed camera free for 5 years and counting!
@@northernrider780 no they are not above them however they ar granted exemptions from local authorities in the form of TROs while engaged in police operations, maybe it wasn't a site to begin with as all sites are surveyed and risk assessments carried out, they don't just set up where they please, maybe he was just having his lunch. They don't just move and not come back because a member of the public says so.
@@NoBody-gf8ie nope, he was known for being there, he'd been there for at least 2 years in total, it was a regular spot and it wasn't a member of the public just saying so, the guy was parked blocking an entrance/exit, it doesn't matter who you are, you still cannot block peoples access to business', regardless of your opinion and TROs or anything else... I can only assume he reported back to his office saying where he was parked and he would be reported, they must not have wanted the hassle, many people complained but nobody had ever just confronted the driver about it, he probably didn't want bother from the public if he showed up again, because people were sick of not being able to drive down to the business premises.
Since all speed cameras have been required to be clearly seen and sign posted, the camera van has become the tool of choice for revenue chasing councils. Their hit and run approach, by parking up for a few hours then moving on, can only be interpreted as a way of catching people out. Hopefully my next lay-by break will be as well placed as this drivers.
man who deliberately blocked a safety camera van in Bradford has received a conditional caution and faces losing his vehicle if he repeats his behaviour. Police were carrying out enforcement work in the Thornton area of Bradford last Friday (14 July) when the 67-year-old parked his vehicle and raised the bed of his tipper truck to obstruct the camera operator. He was interviewed under caution yesterday (Thursday, 20 July) and admitted wilfully obstructing a policing support officer acting in the execution of their duty. Paul Jeffrey, Head of the Prosecutions and Casualty Prevention Unit, said: "Dangerous and inappropriate speed continues to cause crashes that result in avoidable deaths and serious injury. We remain committed to promoting safe speeds across the road network. "On this occasion a driver chose to stop and attempt to obstruct the lawful enforcement of speed limits. It is a criminal offence to wilfully obstruct a safety camera operator in the execution of their duty and we will investigate all such incidents. "Our staff are working to keep road users safe, and drivers who choose to speed run the risk of being the cause of a tragedy or being prosecuted for speeding. I would encourage all drivers to drive carefully, within the limit and at a speed appropriate to the road conditions." The tipper truck driver was given a conditional caution with conditions prohibiting him from parking within 20 metres of any mobile speed enforcement vehicle or doing anything to willingly obstruct their view, and to remove all social media posts relating to him committing this or other offences. He was also issued with a Section 59 Notice under the Police Reform Act which means a repeat of this behaviour may result in the seizure of his vehicle.
What a nice policeman, here in the Netherlands, in a similar situation, you're lucky if you don't get fined or even arrested and brought to court for obstruction of justice.
*My reply to a "justifying do gooder" which I think deserves a bigger audience! -* "Yeah... Bought to you by the same "good people" who rescinded on making the QEII crossing free about 10 years ago, once construction costs were paid, which was written into statute law. These are the thieves who clobbered me *£80* for going into the *ULEZ* zone in London DESPITE me having called them up within an allotted time & them being unable to tell me if I had been in the zone & needed to pay (I was unsure if I had) but then becoming "sure" enough to send me an £80PCN for not paying. As these thieves were unable to give me the required information at the time, I offered to pay the normal tariff, again within the given 24 hr. period, on the basis they could give me a reference number & refund me if the payment hadn't needed to be paid - Which they refused to do! An appeal to TFL & a further so called "independent" arbitration party later I was still £80 down a hole. It was only when I used up a nuclear option of calling on a good friend of mine who is high up in national print media, & threatened to expose their little scam that I got a full refund! The poachers turned game keepers the RAC & AA were also totally uninterested in this motorists plight & they are now firmly in my sights for losing the plot as to who they should help & support & instead are up to their necks in hookers & gin pulling *£3K* a pop for speed awareness courses! *Get over yourself!* Like I say people weren't bowling pedestrians over like skittles pre cameras & I have driven over 2 million miles in a social & professional capacity without hitting *ANYONE* despite being now made to feel I'm responsible for as many deaths as *Pol Pot* & there are millions like me! Clobber people on phones, driving dangerously & dangerously over speeding but leave decent people like me alone otherwise you will be on the wrong side of a social whirlwind that is a brewing!"
Where was it's handler noticed it's leash hanging from it's neck, Wonder why you stayed in your van, with that snarling animal at your door. Found a good blast from a fire extinguisher works a treat.😎
They are sneaky, in hemel, queensway, they've put a large campervan, inches away from a fixed camara, you don't see the thing until your level with it, so people doing 33/34 will get penalised, it's a nice little earner. It helps pay the xmas bonuses and a bit more. Very sneaky tactics
Well done mate. I have done this twice but they just fucked off. Come on every one why don't we all do this and really piss them off. Who knows it might become a new sport. If you can think up a good name for it comment below.
From 00.30 Richard told the cop that he was aware of the speed camera van when it came down. So to me that means the camera van driver is at fault. Due to the fact that he pulled up behind him. I wouldn`t have moved either.
@@philgreen815 he was! The operators are designated as policing support staff and section 38 of the police reform act 2008 makes it an offence to wilfully obstructs designated person.
Excellent police work that, is required to ask him to move but happily respects his legal rights and then off on his way - a great example of how the UK police doing they're job correctly.
He should have known his legal position before he started hassling the guy. It was only the fact that the driver knew his position (literally) & handled the situation so well that the idiot had to walk away. 90% of people would have been illegally forced to move!
If they were in a position where it was sensible no problem, they are sat where speed limit jumps up from 30 to 40 in a matter of meters. Sit by an area where it matters and I will understand, this is all about cash
@@richardneville9872 in quite a few instances I have also noticed the police cameras take the piss especially on motorways ( not including road works )
Where I live, there have been children killed on roads. It's strange, they never have cameras there. What the do though is set up to catch drivers increasing their speed on the A56 (I think) which is linked and identical to the M66. They also like to do that the opposite way to, to catch people who haven't slowed in time to 50mph. There is also a terrible blind junction nearby where loads of accidents happen and near misses happen daily. It would be so much safer with a simple convex mirror. The council won't put one up though. So many of these cameras main priority is about generating money, safety is way down the list.
now they can get you to move lawfully thanks to 2017 amendments to the police reform act it is now an offence to obstruct them and carries a maximum punishment of 51 weeks imprisonment
I will admit though I'm not even proud to be American anymore because of the fact you can get a much more civil encounter with a police officer in any other country in the world...
This country of ours is all about robbing the innocent motorist so the well connected can have a happy life and sponge off our misery when paying speeding fines
But it's also about protecting my daughter from idiots like you who speed past schools because you have somewhere else to be and other people's lives are less important than your own,from being knocked down and killed,thats why you complain,you probably use a mobile phone,eat,and probably worse while driving...it's not just about making money you know....jerkoff..
@@rupert72 if your daughter runs in front of moving cars who's the idiot? Plus do speed cameras stop people using their phones or eating at the wheel? I've seen crashes happen because people weren't staring at their speedo saw a camera and pressed the brake just incase out of panic even if they were within the speed limit. It's all about the money. By the way the correct term is wanker.
If they wanted to "Reduce speed on this road" ... then they would build Traffic calming measures, not ALLOW people to speed past them to claim fine money and possibly someone's livelihood if they lose their licence.
The fine is totally disproportionate to the crime. It would have wiped out a full day's hard physical work for me. Yet becham can pay for the privilege through the 1000 pound solicitors and talk on phone and speed in car that costs more than twice my house. Well done sir
The police officer says the motorists will get caught because hes parked there ISN'T THAT THE SOUL OBJECTIVE of the POLICE to catch has many as possible to keep the treasury till FULL
Imagine the change of people’s opinion if there child or a loved one was hit and killed by a speeding moron. I have no issues with speed camera vans as I drive the speed limit.
I also drive the speed limit in town, edge my bets on the motorway though. My objection is where this van was parked, just short of where the speed limit increases. Park near schools or built up areas and they have my support, where he was parked was all about money making and nothing to do with safety
