RIO Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 Hi, just thought i would share a small spooky story with you all to see if anyone can shed some light on the subject... I live in Crosby, and leave for work at about 7am heading to Douglas. Every morning without fail, a green wrx overtakes me at the top of the ballahutchen road (from glen vine to union mills) as the car is travelling so fast, i never get time to see the reg (although i managed to catch MAN something or other the other day) whether or not i am a few minutes early or late, the same car overtakes at the same place. It has started to spook me a little. Anyone know the phontom green WRX from the west???? registration MAN something......!?!?!?!?!?!?! am i insane? am i still asleep untill quarter bridge??????? HELP ME!!!!!!

Kristan Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 Heard a good one this morning, sad thing is give it 5 years and the government will probably be doing it!! Taken from local paper. A Revolutionary system to beat speeding motorists is to go nationwide after secretly being trialed in basingstoke. From today, all new tyres will carry a built in microchip that records the speed of the vehicle by monitoring the revolutions of the car's wheels. Aimed at penalising drivers who travel faster than 70mph, sensors in upgraded fuel pumps will download data that the new tyres have collected when the motorist refuels. Any vehicle that has been driven at more than 70mph since it's last fill up will be automatically photographed by the filling station's security cameras and the registered owner will receive a £60 fixed penalty in the post within 72 hours. Basingstoke was chosen to host the scheme due to it's close proximity to the M3 and the Ringway network on which many drivers exceed the speed limit. A Government spokesperson told the Observe. "No penalty points will be handed out yet under the new scheme, as there can be no proof as to who was actually driving when the offence occured. However, if a car owner allows someone else to use his or her car, it is reasonable to hold the owner accountable for the behavior of the driver. We are confident because of the trials in Basingstoke the scheme will be a success." Extensions to the scheme could see cars with unpaid fine automatically refused fuel, with the embedded microchips switching off the fuel pumps. Speeding drivers will thus be forced off the roads.

CustomScoobyIOM Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 Load of b0llocks. What if you have to put your foot down to get around a idiot. How do you tyres handle that? If the tyre wheelspins, then you are doing 150mph!
Cret Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 One rather suspects it's what's known as an 'April fool' Jon.
