NIP for 35 mph in 30 Zone!

(1/4) > >>

Juliand:
This is an update on my Speed Camera Trap post.... NIP received now. 35 mph in 30 zone. The APCO threshold is 35 mph. I am within the threshold - ie not over 35,  36 being the apparent trigger, unless I have mis-understood it.

Even my wife, who is a non driver says, surely they aren't doing you at 35mph. WTF. Any patronising comments about " anything over 30 is an offence" - get real - that's like a couple of millimeters on the speedo...... Maybe the 'Vicars and Bishops Forum' is more for you......

If I were to drive around with no number plates at all, the're aren't any Licence points associated with that and I could be blasting at 100+ mph....  only a fine.   I might as well have been doing 42 mph - it's in the same penalty band for the Hampshire Muppets of Law and Order. Very hacked off......

Just had the same in the works car ,difficult to argue we weren't over the limit I had a clean license for 28 years could go on about it being on a down hill stretch just as the speed dropped from 40 to 30 but don't think I'll risk it hoping /expecting to get a speed awareness course that will almost definitely make me a better driver  :driver:

Wouldn't argue unless I already had a few points

Shame that.  I was stopped doing 120 on the M6 last year  Officer was Very nice. He recorded my speed as 90 something mph which got me 3 points and £100 fine.  Not sure what 120 is in mm but its quite high I think
