  • james may isnt looking too good at the end of this video, thats what happens when you eat too much spam

  • @tosspot86 haha.... thats not James May, thats Jason Dawe an overweight puff. James May was in old TG and was re-enlisted for new TG

  • @rollthetape88 i know lol it was a joke

  • @tosspot86 It's not James.

  • @spallcast of course it's not james it was a joke, do you really think people are that stupid that they liked it 32 times without realising the humour in it? i know its jason dawe

  • just run over every speed camera

  • mr you would have 240 nickels dumbass

  • @MrDubstepJoe lol theres more than 240 pixels in 240p

  • Comment removed

  • I hope they did it a few times to prove it was true and not just the camera fucking up!

  • WIN! fick ja!

  • Maybe in the next decade bbc will improve from 360p to 480p.

  • People who make jokes about the 'pixels' are lame, losers. Grow up people.

  • Those are the ugliest headlights I've ever seen.

  • @TheGreatStonedOne I completely disagree with you sir.

  • hello camera.. oh shit!! 169mph! bye bye licence.. :( aha!

  • @Default1235678 lol just because someone says something on youtube doesnt mean they are on benefits and are too poor to own a good car, even if you are rich you can still log into youtube and make comments on videos.

  • @megaspeed2 hell yeah

  • wow its weird to see top gear when they had such a tiny audience in the studio

  • 240p, WE MEET AGAIN. xD, i just had to!

  • Buggatti Veyron ss?

  • @Spartan9092 Not there yet. This was before Bugatti even announced they were going to make the Veyron.

  • @hawkboy06 I know, but it would be nice to see it :P

  • dont care about speed cameras, good luck proveing it was me in the car and good luck getting me to pay the ticket. u can take my licsence but if u dont take my keys im still going to drive and the only way ur taking my keys is when u pry them from my cold dead hand

  • @armymatt83 Pathetic troll is pathetic.

  • Im a terrenchel dowpour and i love open sun roofs so get allstate

  • I would like everyone to know that my comment was a copy of someone else's comment on here, it didn't get as many thumbs up but I guess i was luckier. i personally hate thumbs up whores. i don't know why the fuck i'm telling you all this

  • @audveltadmuna because you want thumbs up

  • I think a guy here in sweden did that a few years back in a yellow porsche. the camera did go of but the photos just showed a long yellow stain

  • @XYZrock I think from the evidence of the first attempts it's obvious that that wouldn't work. The cameras are designed to take pictures of fast moving vehicles after all.

  • But yes I don't believe he did 165mph that was bullshit

  • @thelionman1993

    its totaly do able but if you were going 165mph you will properly get a server case of death say on the m25

  • @default12345678 mate it aint bullshit that he has a tvr cause I have one and they aren't stupid money to buy if you buy them second hand like I have a tvr cerbera that cost me £20,000 and yes it breaks down a lot but so do all tvr's so it's not bullshit just being in the right place at the right time

  • It's an easy thing to do in a Prius, the camera is so disgusted by you that it looks the other way

  • @NazarovVv problem is that the prius top speed is like 30mph

  • Why these stupid 1 minutes videos? JUST MAKE ONE LONG ONE!

  • Ooo black stig?

  • I did 165mph in mine and it was still going, but i s&*t myself ! Its the speed you come up on other drivers !

  • I just get my passenger to shoot them before i go past

  • Horay!!

    

  • we shoot out stop lights in my county i wonder what would happen to those.

  • If i had a nickel for every pixel in this video ... well yes .. i would have a nickel.

  • @MrMoquai If I had one pence for every pixel in this video... oh wait, I do!

  • @MrMoquai actually you have 240 nickels

  • @drenahmeti22 You just don't get it do you?

  • @MrMoquai i do but in real life you would have 240 nickels :)

  • @drenahmeti22 That's a bit fucking obvious isn't it?

  • @MrMoquai hehe

  • @drenahmeti22 actually 240 is just the vertical number... you also have 320 horizontal pixels, therfore 320x240 = 76800.

  • @MrMoquai If I had at much nickels as your IQ number, i would have to pay money.

  • @MrMoquai if i had a dollar for every pixel in this video, id owe the bank money

  • @MrMoquai if i had a dollar for everyone who complains about video quality, id be freaking rich

  • @MrMoquai if i could have a dollar for every moron making such comments as you, i would be a millionair

  • @JoostVanKommer Lighten up and take your anti-depressants.

  • @MrMoquai same holds for you

  • @JoostVanKommer "Same holds for me" That doesn't even make any sense?

  • @MrMoquai oh yes it does

  • why don't you just get some black duct tape, cut it to size and stick it on your number plate so L becomes an E, T becomes I, D becomes B, 8 becomes 0 (with white tape)... i could go on... Sport cars... $200,000 plus, duct tape, $2?

  • @heffyg101 the look on your face when your can gets take away...........priceless

  • the fat bloke now sells Used cars to poor people on telly.

  • cameras top out at 172MPH.

  • actually, it really depends on the camera. coz the ones in Estonia, they take pictures of cars closing in on them, not going away. and apparently, the ones here don't even see the ones going further away. so u can do whatever you like... on a motorcycle! but it would be interesting to see, can a speed camera (a one like here) be outrun by a car

  • rubbish! look at it, it is like motorcycle exhaust pip

  • SCIENCE!!

  • american speed cameras are geared to 200 mph and require 1 photo for a ticket

  • why there so few audience in the studio room?

  • @BONJOVI0405 cos this is "before they were famous"

  • ok. lemme try this with my mclaren slr

  • Top gear top tip if ur in a hurry and there is a speed camera go 171 mph

  • An ad when the video's already started? com'on

  • Okay, next time I go past a speed camera, Im going for 170mph. Lets see if this works! :D

  • Wow, James May put on some weight back then!

  • @marcingrochala1 not may he came in during 2nd season 

  • @MegaEnforcer 1: It's Aero, not Arrow. 2: Naaaah. The Veyron SS! :D

  • This so old camera! The new one even if you are over 300 k/m!

  • Now you know what to do to beat speedcameras ...

    go buy a TVR

  • This is a camera setup fault, you didnt do anything your not traveling at the speed of light and if it was setup right no way you could beat it unless you were traveling faster then the speed of light. Sorry you failed, (Human error)

  • @icewolf747s Speed of light?? WTF are you talking about? I don't think you know how those speed cameras work.

  • @icewolf747s you seem to be pretty confused.

  • fuck this mother fucker...

  • some say the fat man ate james may, but all we know he's called the pig

  • @audveltadmuna made me laugh that did

  • isn't that table cloth shirt Hammond is wearing, the one he talked about in his book, the one hated so much, he went to the bbc archives to remove every photograph of himself wearing it? and yet it still ends up on Youtube!!!

  • Thats really amazing!

  • it's a fake watch carefuly

  • @loweprofesional Umm, watch what?

  • @darketherealv2 watch carefully this speed camera when tha TVR passed thru

  • @loweprofesional watch what when the TVR passes through?

  • @loweprofesional It's not really fake as far as i can see, the movie is " badly " uploaded and so the pixel moved when the TVR had passed. Nothing else is seen really..

  • Theres like 6 people in the croud... watch top gear now and theres like 150 :D! hahaha

  • @fuckyouimtrolling Trolls be trollen.

  • has james may lost a fuck load of weight or is that another presenter

  • Comment removed

  • @DemonAMVs People who think that speeding alone is dangerous need to educate themselves though. High speeds are not that dangerous. Provided the car is up to scratch and the driver is in control. The German still have unrestricted roads meaning no speed limits. They also happen to be some of the safest and least crash prone roads in the world. The problem is down to idiots. I was flying along the motorway the other day perfectly fine happy in control. Then the idiot in the next lane had an idea.

  • @yonumpty Firstly German roads that are unrestricted are very wide and well maintained, the people that speed where I live and try to kill me are usually doing so on 2 lane roads with oncoming traffic while the road itself has a lot of bends and isn't very well maintained. There is a difference between breaking the speed limit where its set and using well maintained roads with unrestricted speed limits.

  • @DemonAMVs Have you ever driven in Germany? A lot of their unrestricted roads are actually only 2 lanes well 4 lanes wide if you include oncoming as well. Nearer cities they grow like most places to 10+ lanes. They aren't really any better maintained than most other countries motorways either. Just purely down to better lane discipline etc. They are basically just more observant when driving. Makes it much easier.

  • @yonumpty Again those are unrestricted roads, you are allowed to speed on them. I am talking about speeding on roads that have a set speed limit.

  • @DemonAMVs He was going to pull into my lane...where I was doing around 70mph. While he was doing around 30mph. Guess what the result of that was? Him having a go at me because I was going to fast. I was doing the limit, but I was still in the wrong because he wanted to be in that lane. The problem is most people have no lane discipline. The Germans do for the most part, so you can fly along at 100+mph without issues. Because they aren't fucking idiots when driving. Unlike most people I find.

  • Comment removed

  • @DemonAMVs That's different they are built up areas. No one does speeds like that in pedestrian areas. Yes it might say 30mph and they do 35mph. But so does everyone else. Most places where kids play are limited to 20mph or less. That is different from a high speed motorway where we see cameras as well and where those speeds are the norm. Because no pedestrians are allowed. Yet people still moan because people speed there.

  • Comment removed

  • @DemonAMVs There are accidents at any speed limit, human error. Most people don't go through areas where kids are in the street at 140kmh as you have wrote previous. 70kmh and getting an impact it doesn't even need to be a hard one to knock a car off course. The speeding driver could have done that only a few KM faster. Getting a shunt from a metal object is going to cause an issue. My point is going quickly on it's own is not a problem. If other drivers were aware of it and adjusted.

  • @yonumpty If that fool was not going so quickly he would have been able to stop in time to not kill that fucking family. And even if they impacted there would not have been so much force to push them through the barrier. The barrier was designed to stop a car but at the speeds he hit them even that could not stop them. So do not say there death was justified because of "Human error" They died because 1 person thought he would be a rebel. 1 life for 4 is not fair.

  • Comment removed

  • @DemonAMVs If you get so worked up about speeding, why are you watching videos about it? just steer clear of the high speed stuff (even though it was done on a track under safe conditions) then you dont have to curse and swear and get your panties in a bunch all over a video on the internet..

  • Comment removed

  • @DemonAMVs whats ur problem man, did u know any of those people? have u been affected by someone speeding? and does it make any difference to you your family or your friends? people will do what they want to do, i bet you think everyone who rides a bike is a speeding nutter eh? and no going a little over the limit is not a 'suicidal dance' and i dont think you have the right to tell anyone to drive into a tree and kill themselves, who do you think you are? go back to watching countdown

  • @DemonAMVs 170 mate, pay attention

  • @DemonAMVs yes or limit cars to a maximum of 70mph and just learn people the green cross code and only have pedestrian crossings with traffic lights :P

  • How do we know they didnt just switch the camera off though lol

  • i tryed that in me 1.4 pugeot.. now i have no licence.. ha!!

  • @mrdrumandbass1 I guess when the officials saw this video, they upgraded their speed cameras secretly

  • @mrdrumandbass1 for driving too slowly? ;-)

  • @digireedoo hahaaaa well ya mum was in the passenger seat so it is understandable ;)

  • James may has let himself go abit ...

  • @Goonercurt actually james may came into the show a bit later, i dont remember his name but that guy was the original third presenter

  • Lol they're helping young people now!!!

  • surely this cant be right , i would have thought the refresh rate for speed cameras , repeat , SPEED CAMERAS , would be very high. I mean look at the super slo mo capable cameras (with the extremely high refresh rate) that can see every tiny movement that come from a hand when it smacks you in the face!

    /watch?v=LRHK0K2ii6Q

    see?

  • You should never talk like you did about mexicans... there is a thin line between funny and lack of respect, you crossed it. Ask the italian singer Tiziano Ferro about this issue... We recieve the foreigners with warmness and joy, we will still do that because you're right we are very lazy! lazy to stereotipe as you did.

    ¡¡VIVA MÉXICO CABRONES!!

  • @DavidSmilovitz Hold on... the presenters of this show make fun of EVERYONE. I'm assuming you didn't care when they've previously made jokes about the Americans, French, Germans, Dutch, Italians, Belgians and even the English, etc etc. Stop crying. All you've done is add "have no sense of humour" to the list of things which people make fun of the Mexicans for.

  • BASTARD! RACIST!

  • It can be done in Finland cause the cameras we have takes a picture of the front of the car and not from behind like the ones in UK etc.

  • @nicce1982 My driving instructor told me that the UK cameras took pictures from the front to begin with, but too many rich people complained because they were getting caught speeding when they were with someone they shouldn't have been (the mistress), the wife would open the envelope and divorce proceedings ensued.

    Whether that's an urban myth or not, I don't know for sure.

  • @VidNationNut It is absolute rubbish - think about it.

  • @VidNationNut I think you might be right, I had also heared that in some parts of Britain forward facing cameras had been in use. Naturally this was well recived by the motorcycling community ,who only have a rear facing plate.

    Presumably that has since changed

  • everywhere i fucking go in this country its like haveing an electronic tag arround my fucking ankle. im not a criminalk so why fucking make me you fucking toss pot government and fucking toss pot councils.

  • I have a clean licence,Passed an advanced test,my car is perfently maintained and a top rang car at that.I pay all my taxes fully comprehensive insurance obey all the laws,never had an accident,not even a scratch in over 10 years. And Today i feel like total shit,as i used a main route 6 lanes(that i presumed was a 40 mph routeas it was not posted as being 30mph) Travelling at 38 mph the damn camera flashed me.

    if i get points then im going to jail as i WILL take a sladge-hammer to that camera

  • Darth Stig!!!

  • Comment removed

  • chuck norris could do it in a reliant robin

  • Motorbike...

    Easy.

  • Here in the States if you go over 90mph the cameras won't catch you. I had a cop tell me that and I tested it out on the GA 400 toll plaza. The cop was right.

  • @TheCottonTop A Lamborghini couldnt get over the speed camera... how did you do it?

  • just bring the veyron it could do it in 1st gear in 2nd the wind from the car it would brake the camera in 3rd gear...you don`t wonna know it is going to happen

  • @MultiPorsche2 More likely in fourth or fifth gear.

    "just bring the veyron"... yes, because everybody spends over a million on an overpriced VW with a fuel consumption that you work out in gallons per mile.

    The TVR on the other hand will give you a very exciting high-performance ride for a lower price than your average boring family hatchback.

    Sure you might argue about TVR's reliability... but to be fair, it's far more likely the veyron will run out of fuel long before the TVR breaks down.

  • @twistedmethoddan if u have over a million to spent on a Bugatti you wouldn`t FUCKING care about fuel consuption!!

  • @MultiPorsche2 If you have any sense, you won't buy a ridiculously overpriced VW anyway. You'd be better off buying a *real* Bugatti - not only are they infinitely more elegant and stylish, but their values are constantly going up.

  • @twistedmethoddan and again if u have on your bank account 10 billion you dont care about price of the car, fuel consuption and rising prices, you just wanna have fun and if u like the ˇOverpricedˇ bugatti than just buy it and if u dont than buy any other cars....

  • @MultiPorsche2 Well that's true, though who has 10 billion ?

    The whole point being these guys are trying to see if any affordable cars that everyday average people might actually own can go fast enough to avoid the speed cameras. Saying 'just bring the veyron' is daft because nobody has a veyron - and if they did they probably wouldn't want to risk crashing it. The TVR on the other hand is both affordable and fast enough - hence why they used that car.

  • @twistedmethoddan well i agree and about 10billion well that it was just an example, i can just tell you that, that my banc account has a LOT less than that :D

  • @twistedmethoddan lol my old neighbors had a veyron i never saw him take it out be he did like to wash it

  • @MultiPorsche2 ye man bugatti veyron kicks ass!

  • Mythbuster tried to do it and not even a jet car could beat the speed camera so this must not be true
