Had a day trip to Boulogne today where an outsized speed hump took out my front number plate. Didn't realize until I parked. Went back to find it and no sign at all. God knows where it went. Naturally I cursed the bloody French and their stupid merde too-big speed humps.

Imagine my delight when I got flashed by a front facing speed camera on the way back up to the tunnel. Deux fingers to les flics!

Kerbed a front wheel on the way up to the top deck of the train and made a note to always insist on the lower deck.

Came out on top, I reckon, P. Car looks better without the front plate, anyway. Will look a load better in the photo. :smile:

Bollox to them. Those frickin speed humps are just stupid, much like the w*nkers that install them. I hit one in a Golf on a newly surfaced road in heavy rain. I was doing the speed limit and didn't see it as it was unmarked due to it blending in with the new, and very wet, surface. It took out the sump and caused over £600 worth of damage and dam near ruined our holiday. F*ckin arseoles the lot of them.

Was surprised at the severity of the speed bump, totally over the top. But if it hadn't been there I'd have got caught by the speed camera. I enjoyed the irony. As you say Benny, bollox to 'em. :smile:
