no i was just driving through shrewsbury yesterday.. only goin about 35-38mph and there was a series of flashes...blue flash. i looked back thinking it was an emergency service.. but i saw nothing..
i was only going slow as i was trying to find my way home..
but then i started getting all paranoid think...
What if...
maybe it was a 30 no a 40mph limit!

I thought this the other week, but I was actually parked up 
Turned out some people were taking photo's of me 
So I drove off and kept driving past back and forth and waving for the camera and generally dicking around. Think they got some good shots

nah it looked like it was kinda behind me...
I didn't think much of it, as i started getting further down the road i started to think... lol...if it was a 30 surley i wouldn't get a points and a fine for being 5-8mph over the limit would I? It was a fairly big road out of town so im pretty sure it was a 40

Perhaps it was aliens riding down on lightning to gain access to machines that are in the ground.
I rekon you could write a film about that.

unlikely, depends on how accurate your car speedo is though. You could be actually doing 70 but your clock shows 65
