    Hey,

    Question about speed cameras.

    Yesterday there was a gardai car on the side of the road with two guards outside and a camera on a tripod, one of the guards was looking through the visor on the camera. It was a 60 zone and I'm not exactly sure if I was doing 60. Now the question is are those cameras taking photos or do they have to stop you at the post? I've just changed my address and send the papers for the car on friday so it will not get changed anytime soon probably. If I got caught will I get the ticket by post on my old address? I can't pick my mail from there anymore so what to do in this situation? Or since they didn't stop me on the spot maybe it will all be fine?

    Thanks in advance.

    sneaky feckers lol. but yeah thats it. only thing is though if it goes to me mans old house he should be grand technically unless ye wanna follow it up by calling out. which nif ye did call out ye would go to his old address and then you will remember been on boards and me man saying he moved.

    OP your feckered ha ha only messing boss.
    Speedo's dont give you a 100% speed anyways. normally about 8-12% off. So ya was not going as fast as ya thought.

    If the guard had his hat off... your alright.

    Section 48.1.5 of the Statue of Ireland.

    Im telling ya, im right. Heard it from a friend, who knew a friend of a friend, who had a friend whos friend was a guard. There all reliable and dead sound.
