Hidden police cameras

Not only are North Wales police force at it but I can say the same thing of the (North Lancashire/ Cumbria(not sure of juristiction here!)) police.

I travel regularly to a bikers meeting place known as Devil’s Bridge, Kirby Lonsdale just off the A65. I normally travel the route from M6 J34 along the A683.

On different weeekends last month I observed two different sly methods of targeting motorcyclist, who by any standards are the main users of this route on weekends.I n the first instance a lone police officer was hiding in a brick built bus shelter on the approach road to Wrayton with a hand held speed detector, Ooops sorry mate I saw you! I

n the second case a Maroon coloured fully faired touring Kawasaki, sorry didn’t get the model, was parked up in a layby on the side of the road. In this instance the cop was wearing regular black leathers and operating a bike mounted camera.

Come on guys have you nothing better to do with your time ! Educate bikers don’t persecute them.
