Wot!? Apparently, the Greater Manchester Police (of the UK, natch) has been sending along a free gift with all speed camera tickets. That is, a bit 'o literature, a booklet called "A Book of Tricks," that at least one lawyer says contains information meant to intimidate and mislead would-be speeders — and the innocent — into compliance. The book outlines the department's "Operation Cheetah," instituted to catch those who would evade speeding tickets dishonestly. But drivers' rights groups say the book goes too far by scaring the accused from exercising their legitimate rights. Bully for you, constable!
