Worst case 6 points £1000 fine. Best case 3 points £100 fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomasjones Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 You can still get the speed awareness course for that speed. Bro got snapped at 96 and got it. Caught 9 months ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TuneR Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Sweet jebus thats a complicated system, since most people wont understand it it wont affect people by just saying you'll lose 1.5 times your wages. Instead its if you're doing 65% over the limit while overtaking, near a school, at the suns zenith, on May day, you're going to be fined 175% your wages.

rider Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Gone are the good old days of a traffic PC in his Skoda where you could barter a little. The one and only time I got caught and fined for speeding the copper knocked 10mph off the speed. Its a bit too clinical getting pinged by a far away camera. I think he was probably being nice as he VASCAR timed my progress and after the fact I read somewhere there must be two police in the vehicle to verify a manual timed VASCAR pull so I probably could have contested it seeing he was a lonesome PC. I must have got away with 30,000 miles driving comfortably over the speed limit beforehand though. Sometimes, you just need to fess up and say fair cop.
