So what's the 'food for thought'?

I don't get it.

That they are fags? Scum? Retards?

Or that you don't like cops?

Neither of the above are hitting my radar.

once a month a garage around my estate gets broken into.
I've never heard about police catching somebody involved.

Yep, everyone hates a cop until they need one.

I admitted that I broke the limit in #11.
So what?
a fourth attempt (or even more, stopped counting at the third one) and still a miss.

I have no grounds to complain about speed limits per se but I have grounds to complain about the police not doing what they are supposed to do and, in addition to that, doing 'their jobs' in spots where they are not needed.

I already explained it.
A good spot is where dangerous situations happen, where exceeding the speed limit might be a threat for pedestrians/drivers, near schools, etc.

There are plenty of such spots in my city but the statistics keep saying that they are not becoming safer.
Why?
They are not marked properly - the police can order local authorities to put a speed limit, draw an additional zebra crossing, put a patrol there.

The police, however, always take the easiest way - there are patrols on each of the 3 entrance/exit roads to the city.
Why?
Speed limits from 90-50/40. The easiest way to catch those who fail to break early enough.
Do they break the law - yes, they do.
Should they get a ticket - of course.

Should the police care more for the 'black spots' -yes, they should.
Do they? They don't.

btw: a lock-up for speeding?
