Got caught speeding in my AVIS courtesy car this morning I think by a Safety Speed Camera Van.
I was doing about 80 in a 60 then I saw him and slowed down but I think he may have caught me.
What will I get? How longs it take?
Cheers,
Alex.

If I was in my corsa I'd have been going quicker. The road was empty.
I need a road angel 2.

Its a AVIS courtesy car as my car was written off recently. So I guess the ticket will go to them then on to me.
Really hasn't been my year so far

if it was a camera in a van, dont worry about it.
Just ask them to present the calibration certificate of that day.
Chances are they wont have it, because they'll have to spend time UNPAID callibrating the camera. and who the feck will work earlier in the morning unpaid 
and if the camera aint calebrated, it dont give an accurate reading, therefore, you tell them to fcuk off.
worked for my mate 
if it was callibrated, you get 3 points n a £60 fine like everyone says

did eva read the article bout a lad who got done for speeding he supposadly was doin 110+ and lost his lisence. He then argued the fact that his fiat couldnt go that fast and he got sum ex police officer to drive it round a test track to prove so. But he still ended up being banned, even wen he proved his car cant reach the speed he was caught doin. lol
irrelevant i kow but just thought bout it
