I think youâ€™ll find that plod can do what ever they want short of entrapment to catch you.

Safety partnerships on the over hand have strict guild lines they have to follow. Even though they donâ€™t because there meant to be a visible deterrent. Police are just there to apprehend you

Not 100% sure but I think that safety partnerships employees have no more powers or rights than yer average Joe. What happens is that they take the photo with the speed on it then singe a witness statement saying that at that time at that date at that place they snapped you doing the speed stated.

Now we just about all have camera phones we carry so what you can do is if you see one of there vans parked illegally on the hunt for there next victims is take a snap of them print it off take it in to your local plod with a witness statement saying at that time blar blar blar now plod isnâ€™t likely to do much if they get one or to complaints but if enough people are doing it theyâ€™ll have to act and the safety partnerships are going to find it hard taking the moral high ground when you can prove that there parking there vans dangerously.

The only way to get rid is to turn public opinion against them
