    I don’t like the direction things are going at all at all. Insurance companies that want to put trackers in your car, automatic speed limiters, average speed cameras etc Scotland freaked me out to be honest... A9 was 100 miles of continuous speed cameras, and generally speaking I’ve never seen so many cameras in a place... maybe London but Jesus this isn’t normal, how are people ok with this level of interference and nannying in their life..?

    Buy a motorbike

    Can't be done for speeding by a camera or van if approaching the van head on.

    There's almost no regulation outside of emissions for a bike.

    I did the west coast of Scotland and ignored every single average speed camera.

    Only issue is the constant gnawing threat of death

    It is precisely that “constant gnawing threat of death” that puts me off but fair points!

    Couldn't have said that better myself. I am not okay with it. What rips my knitting is it's a crowd of corrupt people dictating how the average Joe should behave. Also you can bet there have been heavy brown envelopes to certain companies to manufacture this tech or provide it.

    Anyone know of a safe decent car wash located in Cork, particularly Blackrock or Douglas? Made a fatal error of parking under a tree and car is ruined because of birds.....
