New speeding laws tomorrow

This is a blue board which means that it's for everybody (Safe For Work content only). If you see any adult content, please report it.

Friendly reminder for all my b/o/ng friends that driving in the UK is no sensible fun allowed from tomorrow.

http://www.express.co.uk/life-style/cars/795209/speeding-fines-new-laws-rules-price-tickets-UK-April-24

>A minor offence constitutes a band A charge. Band A charges are for drivers who exceed the stated speed limit between one and 10mph.

>So, if a driver travels 31mph up to 40mph in a 30mph zone, they can be charged between 25 per cent and 75 per cent of their weekly income.

>Drivers who exceed the stated speed limit by 11mph up to 20mph will be charged between 75 per cent and 125 per cent of their wage.

I might have to become an electric cyclefag
>>
How is 1mph over even enforceable, all Speedos are around 1.5 to 2 mph out anyway.

I'm sure road safety is going to be just great with everyone glued to their dash clocks instead of the road ahead.

Mine is 4mph different. On the street cameras that tell you your speed, It'll say 30mph but my speedo says 34mph.

I don't see what the hell is wrong with the current speeding laws we have.

do bongistani cops regularly pull people over for 5 or 10 over?
>>
>>17071893
I've never been pulled over but there are sometimes stationary police speed camera vans that sit on the side of a road and if you're doing 5mph over the speed limit, it'll snap you and you get a fine through the post.
>>
>>17071898
i've never been pulled over either but i've seen less scamera vans around in recent years. i presume this applies to the fixed cameras especially average speed ones which are more common now.

Not sure if you're from the UK but all you hear about here is MUH NHS needing more money.

But taxing people for going 1mph over the speed limit won't go towards that.

Its good idea to have fines that vary according of income because otherwise some rich people will never respect the speed limit.
Is it like in Quebec where only tickets from a cop can lead to the lost of your license or they just don’t care about innocent until proven guilty.
>>
>>17074668
It would make sense but the fines are capped at £2500, and a lot of the richest people are on minimum wage with large dividend payments as that skirts round income tax into the much lower capital gains tax, also making this fine structure pointless.
>>
>>17073363

It might get that bad in Ontarindia or BC. BC will impound your shit if you go over 40kmh the limit. I doubt any other parts will get that bad, well maybe the poor ass provinces.

That's good because slopestyle isn't a race, you must have not had much success if you thought the goal was getting to the bottom in the shortest amount of time.

It's set it and forget it, so you can have a few options for gearing depending on the course, but it's not feasible to run a shifter cable through a gyro.
