North Yorkshire Police have today been promoting
their recent conviction of Timothy Hill with a laser jammer to all the
major news outlets. Reading between the lines we wonder if he was
prosecuted for hiding his Range Rover and denying he was the driver as
much as he was for having the jammer. The news story confirms the jammer
‘did its job’ and they could not get a speed reading on which to
prosecute. It would also seem from this news story that the jammer unit
was in some sort of continuous jamming mode.
However this guy was clearly an idiot for attracting attention to
himself and having no regard to law or the police and we do not condone
his actions. Jammers should be used to alert you to speed traps and give
you a chance to check and adjust your speed if necessary, not to carry
on driving with impunity with no regard to the laws of the road.
