Old news, but I haven't seen it mentioned here...

Motorcyclist sets off speed camera, sliding along the road WITHOUT his bike.

I SUPPOSE it's still illegal to be speeding even without a vehicle? Very Happy

Yes it is illegal the wording is, he has "Care, custody OR control" of the vehicle"

Yes for 1 & 2 but not 3 Rolling Eyes

What about if the bike had left the road and it was just the speed of the rider sliding along the road that triggered the camera? That wouldn't be fair would it?

Unless he started to run faster once he fell of the bike, then I think we can presume that he, and the bike, were speeding!
