I use an app on my phone to warn me as I approach speeding cameras but I wasn't paying attention on London Bridge because I assumed going under 30 would be fine.
That reminds me of the radar detector available in some cars in the US - I used one in DC and it was set off by a Drugstore Chain ...

Oh right, this isn't a detector it, simply uses a database and then based on your GPS position, it knows when it's approaching a known speeding camera.

If I lived in a high density population area, as you do, I'd have all these essentials too

I'm driving to Cornwall within a couple of hours and yes, the day they let me off happens to be the day I will speed.

Apparently so!

I don't get caught when I knowingly speed. If I get a ticket, it will be when I'm innocent.

Well ... be careful - both on the roads and in the vicinity of cameras!
Having said that, I drive a 90 + (between cameras) and so far so good !!

Daisy! I did not expect you to be the type!
Also considering my assumption of your age, this adds to my surprise.

Considering I thought you were 70+, yes just might be.

Lovin' that ....
If I were 70+ I wouldn't be whining about my oil bill as I'd be getting something or other (at least £250 I think) from the Government to help defray the cost !!
