Cool clip from Top Gear, where they test a speed camera to see if it's true that if you go fast enough, the camera can't detect you...

It is possible indeed
I once did 215km/h with a polo gti, it was not fast enough

- it is mph not kph
  215 kph is only about 133 mph. not that that isn't fast, but not fast enough according to this experiment.

What's the point?
Speed cameras are there to make the roads safer. What was the point of this whole exercise apart from wasting petrol and causing pollution? You'll get some dildo now trying to do it themselves.

- Whats the point?
  Couldn't disagree with you more Dude. What evidence do you have to prove cameras make roads safer? They generate millions of pounds revenue, that is their sole purpose. It has been proved they do not reduce accidents, thats why many Police units are not only not installing any more cameras, in some cases they are removing them. I agree the Top Gear experiment is ridiculous but it makes interesting viewing.
