Sorry to hear that Ian, hopefully you will get a decent beak!

They are cracking down here in Wales too as people have been 'playing' on the quiet roads.

Embarrassingly I got caught at 67 in a 30limit - whilst entering a village from a 60limit - expensive lawyer predicted Court, Ban and big fine, I was able to plead by post, no lawyer got handed 6 points, no ban and I think it was £450 fine.

I think like most things, it’s a bit of a lottery.

**** luck fella

Why? Did they confiscate your car then?

No, no confiscation. When I’m in the other 2 I usually crack on a fair bit harder but I opted for the 320D estate because I was bringing some pipe back from B&Q and it wouldn’t fit in them. Thank heaven for small mercies!

You were lucky; twice the legal speed limit is usually classed as reckless driving which is an automatic ban.

'Playing' is putting it lightly......Living in Wales as well I have seen many driving like fecking idiots as the roads are quiet. Fully understand the crack down.

Furlough extended until October , if they get you in quick the ban might not be too bad, there's nowhere to go anyway

I’m retired, so I’ll spend my ban working on my cars at home. It really isn’t a big deal.

@Boris J
Come on Boris see what you can do for one of our own on here.
It's only a bit of speeding he didn't have any Class A on himself.

Do you have a date yet?
Is it the kind of function that you need to take one with you ?

No date yet mate. I won’t know for months and when I do there will be a big backlog. It might come as a Christmas present to myself! :D

They shouldn’t need to bother with producers but I think they still can and do just for the Agro it gives you.
