Dizzy Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 My neighbours car is recorded as doing 37.9 mph on 21 June 11 on Coldhams Lane in Warrington. Â Clever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Not tried it but I can guess what's going to show. It should theoretically be possible to get the make, model and colour of the car and insert the plate number onto it. Now that would be really cleaver! Â Â I often wonder if little things like this are just another way of gathering information about us? Â Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzy Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 no idea but it did say 'Warrington' too hence 'clever' Â PS Bill... thats why I typed in a grumpy neighbours car reg rather than my own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inky pete Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 It's just taking the name of the town where the car was registered. Â Mine said Coldhams Lane in Harlow - which is where our head office is, but I've never been there in my life! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 So basically then everyone gets spotted speeding on these Coldhams Lane(s). Maybe it needs needs to be brought to the attention of Mr King etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzy Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 I did but I thought it looked more like my other half and he swears blind he wasn't using my car at the time.. so I guess we will have to contest it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter T Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Perhaps I am better off not knowing as we only have the one car which is my wife's Disability car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
algy Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Non of you clicked to look at the evidence picture Apart from Dizzy and myself I don't think the other 'muppets' have, Bill certainly 'gone off on one'. Nice on Lt. :lol: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Just a few words of caution Algy that’s all.  Sending your Internet details and car registration to an unknown website isn’t the smartest thing to do.    Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 No harm in being cautious eh Bill and these days you just never know.  .....but in my case it's more like paranoia  If my neighbours car now goes missing or anything odd happens I'll report back (Well actually no I wont, I shall remain silent and delete my own posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
algy Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 You do have a point Bill however thousands of people and the motor trade advertise cars on the internet on Motortrader and other car selling sites adding full details and registrations numbers including photos, sometimes of the vehicle standing in their driveway etc , I have sold the last four vehicles I have owned in that manner perhaps I have been lucky that i have not suffered any problems to date.

Evil Sid Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Well just had a look and a chuckle at the picture but if it comes to court I have a very very good excuse. The registration I put in was for my motorbike which I scrapped off in 1979 and watched being crushed with a slight tear in my eye. Â Was caught doing 34.2 in a thirty limit on cliff road Warrington off the porth roundabout. As it was a putch moped with just two gears and a top speed, down a steep hill, with a tail wind and me pedalling as fast I could o just over 28 mph I think they need to recalibrate the camera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
