2 more mph and you would have instant ban for doing double the limit. harsh but then you did break the law.

Bad luck mate,you live and learn i suppose
At least they didnt ban you

Not having a go or anything cos everyone speeds (apart from grannies) but speed limits are put in place for a reason cos just look at how many accidents there are even when people stick to the limit.
