I wish i had crystal ball telling me that there is sign on next bend and i should reduce my speed.....Waste of time going to court on these.
You should be at 60 when you arrive at the sign. There is no grace distance.
Yup, I was done there too on a saturday morning. I could see the camera flashing at cars but thought I was in the 80 zone so kept on at 80. Doh. It was like shooting fish in a barrel there. Handy little earner for them.
Bugs the hell out of me now though when I routinely see people zooming past at 100+
The Gardai need to be instructed by the public as to where to place speed traps that are relevant...
I think I would rather the current situation i.e. empirical research, using extensive data, was undertaken to identify areas that were most prone to collisions due to speed. This research is the basis for deciding the camera locations.
Having said that the siting of speed limit signage in Palmerstown is a totally separate issue.
That's for the GoSafe cameras not the ones being discussed here...
You should complain about the location of the van if it really was just inside the first speed sign for 60km and it was unreasonable to have achieved 60 in such a short area? Or was it just a reminder sign for an earlier sign for 60km you missed? Phone the number in Thurles to find out how to lodge a complaint.
It wasn't a reminder, speed limit changed from 80 to 60.......... Would anybody have detail etc on how to make a complain............
