Nope, I've only ever seen the speed signs you talk of on a 30mph road. One particular day I was in a rush and scored 29. Usually I score between 23 and 25.

75, but not in a 30 zone :nono: I think the counter stopped at 75 because I was in 4th at just over 6250 rpm (the beeper beeped) :lol:

I've seen a few different ones, some just tell you the speed, some flash a smiley face if you are below the speed level and an angry face if you are above it and some are just there to see who can get the highest score :lol:

not sure how true it is but was told by a local traffic bod that the temporary ones have a counter and record how many are over the limit - past a certain percentage and its time for a "speed trap" to sort the job..........

we decided one summers late night to have a laugh with the one in the village of tongue up in the highlands, me in the wr1 and one of my mates on his aprillia RSV 1000 mille. Now into the village is a very long straight ( and the 30mph starts a fair bit from anything and that is where that speed detector was placed) so we were side by side doing 130 came into the village and............it was gone. that bloody day they had moved it to bettyhill (next village east) to a bit of road it would not be safe to do any sort of speed as blind summit into village. so never found out what they would read so decided a flat out blast across the causeway would have to be done instead.love the roads up there just amazing

The only place I saw a reasonably high speed was when I sat in the back of the police van in Finland (and once in CZ) and the copper showed me his radargun :oops:

Just like the las vegas hooker

A Hooker in Las Vegas
A guy is walking the strip in Las Vegas and a fantastic-looking Vegas hooker catches his eye.
He strikes up a conversation and eventually asks the hooker,
"How much do you charge?"

The Hooker replies, "It starts at $500 for a hand-job."

The guy says,"$500 dollars! For a hand-job! Holy crap! No hand-job is worth that kind of money!"

The hooker says, "Do you see that Denny's on the corner?"
"Yes." "Do you see the Denny's about a block further down?"
"Yes." "And beyond that, do you see that third Denny's?"
"Yes." "Well," says the hooker, smiling invitingly, "I own those.
And I own them because I give a hand-job that's worth $500."

So the guy says, "What the hell? You only live once. I'll give it a try."
They retire to a nearby motel. A short time later, the guy is sitting on the bed
realising that he has just experienced the hand-job of a lifetime, worth
every bit of $500. He is so amazed, he says, "I suppose a blow-job is $1,000?"
The hooker replies, "$1,500."
"I wouldn't pay that for a blow-job!"
The hooker replies, "Step over here to the window, big boy.
Do you see that casino just across the street?
I own that casino outright.
And I own it because I give a blow-job that's worth every cent of
$1,500..."
The guy, basking in the afterglow of that terrific hand-job, decides to put off
the new car for another year or so and says, "Sign me up."
Ten minutes later, he is sitting on the bed more amazed than before.
He can scarcely believe it but he feels he truly got his money's worth.
e decides to dip into the retirement savings for one glorious and
unforgettable experience. He asks the hooker, "How much for some pussy?" The hooker says, "Come over here to the window, I want to show you something.
Do you see how the whole city of Las Vegas is laid out before us:
All those beautiful lights, gambling palaces, and shows?"
"Damn!" the guy says, in awe, "You own the whole city?"
"No," the hooker replies,
"but I would... if I had a pussy."
