Should have gone to specsavers me. Lambeth's councils bastardos have hit me with £65 PCN today. Foccing bloodsuckers I hope they choke and all die on my money Laughing

I seriously hate UK traffic laws now, it's the only country in the world where local councils can have their own interpretation of the road rules.

Why the fuck we can't have all road rules in the Highway code and allow or deny morocycles to ride in bus lanes for the whole country? Seriously why?

I would of thought by now all non red route bus lanes would be open for bikes but sadly this isn't the case.

Lambeth road is a narrow road past the hotel and near the bridge and allowing bikes in the bus lane would help traffic flow.

I see bikes in the bus lane on that road every day so the council are making a lot of money.

What gets me is that I can use the bus lanes on the bridges except water loo bridge... why?

Perhaps it's not signposted properly? Looking via "streetview", though, it seems pretty clearly done...

I've smeared my number plate with mud before now to bypass av speed cameras. I smear mud over several parts of the back of my bike to make it look somewhat plausible should I need to explain it. I have literally passed cops on a motorway in this state without getting pulled over. Just dont go overboard with your speed or the amount of mud covering the number plate.

The logic here is that any fines I get for a dirty plate will still be less than that issued by av speed cams. I dont do it very often but seriously there are some places on motorways down to 30mph! Fuck that.

This tactic worked for me while touring but I doubt it would work for very long on regularly ridden roads. The A9 has nearly 100 miles of speed trap, that was my first ever use of this tactic.

I take it you smeared mud on your FRONT number plate as the A9 cameras look at the front of the vehicle.
