Thought you might be interested to know that, following the UK Government's freedom of information act, you can now get access to ALL speed camera offences registered in the last 12 months.
Did you know that every time your car/bike goes past a speed camera, even 1 mph over the set limit, it is registered onto a database?
You only get a ticket if you are way over the limit or (this is the bit I didn't know), if you receive over 2 near misses, you will be classed as a serial offender and get a ticket the next time you go just over the limit.
You can check what has been registered against your vehicle at the following web address: http://www.i-database.co.uk
You will be asked for a password but just click on the need a Password link and you will be given one for future use.
Just enter your car registration. If there is any data on your vehicle, click on the camera window to see a copy of the photograph.
