Speeding on M4

[smartypants]

had another few instances of people pointing things at me, they dont get to see what i am doing, i dont condone speeding in the wrong places at the wrong times, but you never see them there do you, they are busy trying to get your money on clear straight dual carriageways. i've got one on my ed30 and my works van, they work a treat.

I 100% agree with you, speed limits in built up areas are fine, but some are plainly ridiculous and purely for money making schemes. My 40 in a 30 was not residential and on a dual carriageway, and I only accelerated through the light to safely pass a slow moving van when the lanes merged... unaware that the camera was also a speed trap (no signs to indicate so).

Perfectly good maneouver in my eyes, but what the hell can you do?

I got a nice Christmas card in the post today for my MkV GTi from the Wiltshire Police! 

I got Zapped on the M4 by a van on a bridge nr Swindon. I did see it but not in time and he caught me doing 91mph.

I do not have any points on my lience, what could I expect to get? does anyone know?

they usualy sit between junct 16 and 17 on the M4, most of the time aiming at cars traveling westbound ( coming from london )

If they offer you the fixed penaulty notice i would take it at that speed.

Got done on the M57 doing 93 at the end of June. Offered 60 smackers and 3 points which I took.

Two police did me, man and woman, the bloke was fine but the policewoman had a bit of an attitude. She said to me 'You don't seem particularly surprised to have been caught doing 93 on the motorway, Martin, is this a common occurence?'

I had to stop myself from saying 'Well, I was doing 140 yesterday' Lol.

Aye, trouble with that is the parking attendants gun can't "pick you up" so to speak so they come after you anyway don't they!?

[sunnylunn]

i,ve had another 3 parking attendants point at me , but they just get a blank, no numbers, nothing. have never had any probs, and you can switch it off from inside if you need to. down to them to prove you had it on, they are not illegal to have fitted

OK I sent the form off to say I was the driver etc etc... Just got back a fixed pen notice - 3 points £60 fine BARGAIN! 

Still need to get the parking sensors fitted though...

Sounds like you did well out of that...

I got 3pts/£60 in May for running a city-centre amber at 11mph. Money grabbing f*ckers.
