Toeing the line

The City has installed in our neighbourhood some speed bumps and this radar thingey. It is part of its effort to reduce dangerous and loud driving on what are otherwise quiet streets.

Last night I watched the reported speeds for a few minutes and found that most cars stayed about five km/hr below the legal limit (fifty km/hr). However, most motorbikes stayed about ten above it. Some bikes travelled past the radar thingey at speeds of 75 km/hr.

This fellow was staying right at the speed limit.
