This makes me seriously cross. OK, the guy is obviously a moron, but I know where he is coming from. Teaching kids how to catch speeding motorists? Seriously, they should be in the classroom learning Maths!

As a country, we are going to struggle to compete in the sciences and Engineering fields in the future. While the Chinese, Indians and Brazilians (oohhh errr) are spending 30 -40 hours a week on core Maths, Science and language, our kids are learning how to catch speeding motorists.

Actually, I am surprised the school was even open for the kids to learn how to use a speed gun, given the penchant for teachers to close the schools given the merest whiff of snow or for an inset day.

My own Daughter is off today (Teacher training......don't get me started on that) and was off on Friday and Monday because of an inch of snow in Rugby!

He does look a complete tit, should have banned the prick, then the roads will be safer for us all.

And if he does earn £80,000 a year, what is he doing driving an Audi A3????
'Luxury sports car' my arse :D

He is quite clearly an idiot, and if you speed outside a school you deserve what you get. But this is clearly a police matter, not a matter for schoolkids who should be inside learning, not outside, no doubt in hi-viz vests playing with speed cameras.

Seems like a cock to me. especially going off on one in front of kids.

Sounds like the whole thing is probably some kind of CSP publicity stunt gone wrong.

:shock: "...... explaining to children in a ''kids court'' at the school why they broke the speed limit." Blimey, shades of Communist China/Nazi Germany and all those African countries I've forgoten the names of.
What next? "Denounce your own parents to the authorities kidz! You know it makes sense." :cry:


He did stamp on a policeman's helmet in front of those kidz mind. I think that should be looked at that. :lol:

Actually there is a reason for the school kids demonstrating in this way, and that is the fact that there are retard motorists who do not respect urban, pedestrian life. Fair play to the maths teacher, speed = d/t. I hate these wxnkers who speed around surburbia
