I agree that the law is to be obeyed at all times - however I'm still free to criticise it.

A gatso having zero tolerance is an dangerous thing - is it fair that I'd get prosecuted for going 2mph over the limit then a year later Rover makes a statement that all the Rover 620ti vehicles made at the same time as mine have a defect which causes a 20% margain of error on speedometer readings? I could be under the impression that I was obeying the limit yet factors outside my control are discovered after the court case which show I was not at fault.

I don't think that's fair. The current 10% plus 2mph margain of error employed by speed cameras is good enough thanks very much.
