with them vans etc they allow 10% of the speed limit plus 4mph. so in a 40mph you have up to 49mph before the camera clocks you.
i got pulled for doin 55 in a 30, got 4pts and £95 fine.
even tho i tried bribein the copper and tellin him i want racin the lad in the saxo i just wanted to twat him coz he was bein a prick and cut me up.
ah well, roll on three years

I was sort of lucky when I got caught speedin in a 30 doing 56mph, got 3 points and i think a £60 fine, but I raced past two cars on this dual carriage way, maybe he didnt spot that coz he probably could of had me for wreckless drivin only another 6months to drive slow for then I get bumped up to 12 points back to speeding lol

to be honest, if it was me pulling you over, i would probably have arrested you for being a twat

Yeh you'll probably get banned for that.
You won't get any sympathy on here either .
I just tend to ignore the people on here that never speed, so are perfectly right to call everyone a twat.

Went through one at 36 in a 30 and hardly dared look at the mail in the morning for the next 3 weeks. Didn't get anything from it (thankfully). Like you, the camera was a mobile one in a van on the other side of the road. 5 week on, still no letter so I think I will be OK.
Hopefully, your luck will hold.
