  Re: What happened?
 
(...) Ah. And you can just get IT skills just like that I suppose. Funny - it took me so many years to slowly learn all the Windows programming knowledge I've got that gives me a good career. I didn't realise I was wasting my time and I could get (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jul-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

Because our license plates are on the back of the car only, that's the part that gets photo'ed, and there (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jul-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Photo Radar
 
(...) Both good and valid points. My point is that it was *possibly* a family member who was driving the vehicle, and I am not required to testify against them.
