Caught @ 160 mph

[joebloggs]

I reckon these speed camera readings are always a bit dubious.

I do a bit of shooting in my spare time and from that perspective, that's some shooting to be able to hit a moving target at 160mph.
Is that the actual police photo? What is the second number on the radar device? Meters?
Some time ago a policeman showed me one of these laser readings  and it gave speed and a distance at which the speed was taken. If that says 376m that's a hell of a shot at a 160mph target, even tripod mounted or handheld, imagine the wobble/error there must be in that measurement at that distance.

Like I say, I shoot a lot on the range and with a lot of people, mainly air rifles and pistols in the UK, but also handguns and rifles when I'm in the states. Even 75% of competent shooters would struggle to hit a stationary motorbike front on at 50m. Let alone a moving one at any sort of range.

I wish my laser range finder acquired moving targets out to that range.

That's mental! Anyway, I might be ranting and not really know what I am talking about, but aiming at and hitting something isn't like you see in the movies, no matter what you are using.
:rollin :rollin :rollin

I know the road he was caught on, its straight as a Die, unless he was weaving it wouldn't have been hard to track him.

Pretty dumb for slowing really, should have took his chances at out running them, he was already facing a years ban, huge fine and a prison sentence so not much else to loose.
