quote: LOL exactly what i was thinking! Although you should be alright if your taxi driver mate was telling the truth, they were probably calibrating the goldmine oops i mean cameras, and if they couldnt have got a clear picture of your number plate then they dont really have any evidence so no crime effectively. But worst case scenario you get 3 points and a 60 quid fine, I got one on friday 13th of october, bastards got me right where a road changes from 40 to 30, and me being me i didnt do some emergency braking to reduce my speed by 10mph! silly me eh? my insurance company hasnt bumped my renewal price anyway, probably because the police are taking the piss these days and giving out points left right and centre. | |

if its a fixed camera i read they had 28 days to send a notice of intended prosecution letter, then they have 6 months to prosecute, but with a van i dont know, the one near our house has a copper that flags you to the side of the road, the one near ours has its own reserved parking space, its there everyday | |
