Hmm, the way you have written it could be taken that you were referring to the poster directly above? Nothing was said to specify that you were addressing the silly original poster .

I always assumed that replies should be to the original post....... and if you are not, then you normally specify..... I could be wrong there

As for people arguing about "Appropriate speed"...

130 in a 50 is 2.6 times over the speed limit.. I dont care what the conditions are, that is just STUPID!

Also the poster who made the comment that people are being biased because most of us do 80 on the motorway... YOU GOD DAMN PLANK!

Yes its a illegal but its not really comparible is it! Its a motorway, there are crash barriers, slip roads instead of junctions and no pedestrians.. and +10mph is not the same as +80mph..

130 in a 50.........................well done you, your Scooby can go fast like everyone elses on this forum, you wouldnt be feeling such a big shot if you had killed yourself or someone on this 'carless' and 'personless' road. Too bad you didnt hit a tree in my opinion and splatter your brains all over your shiney bonnet.

You give Scooby owners a bad name and your no better than those goons that thrash around in thier tricked out Saxo's, Nova's, Fiesta's or 106's etc...(I know Im stereo-typing but its flippin true)

SIAL ?

Yes you can be prosecuted for travelling at less than the limit.
Mis-use of the gears is one so 30 in 1st means they can pull you... I should know they did it to me !

P.S. Aimed at bikers making a "noise" in built-up areas....

P.P.S. Race tuned Hillman Imp, 8000 rpm @ 30 mph and about 120 dB on a good day....

182 mph is 2.6 times over the UK motorway speed limit... and legal in Germany on the autobahn - so you don't care what the conditions it would be just STUPID to travel at that speed since the UK legislators are known for their insight in making perfect rules and regs

I never said anyone was biased... read my thread - I said it was illegal to exceed the speed limit and that dangerous driving was a seperate offence - there's a story about a guy who should pull the plank out of his own eye before helping someone remove the speck from their own eye...

How do you know what this road is like...

AND above all... IT NEVER ACTUALLY HAPPENED!

Chill Dude...

To help put it all in to perspective read this:

And this happened with no speeding involved so is 130 in a 50 dangerous? make your own minds up.

This ain't about the law mate, it's about acting like a ****. I know you say it didn't even happen now.....but like.....you can't sit there & think "well I can do 130mph in a 50 limit if you guys do 80mph on the motorway...." cuz that's just complete ****e. I would take a guess that most people speed on a daily basis, and therefore break the law......but I would also take a guess that NOBODY (other than you) would think about doin 130mph in a 50 limit

Cuz it just ain't the same thing mate

They may not be able to do anything now but if you think they aren't keeping a watch out for you then you are a fool.
I think you're being very naive in thinking that the police could charge this person just from putting a post on scoobynet We could all make up some bullsh1t and post it on here-doesnt prove anything
ps- i did 250mph on the M5 the other day in my 1.2 corsa-honest!
I await my arrest

My mate got arrested from work today for a speeding that happened 2 weeks ago, he was doing 110mph in a 70mph Zone,
He has got 2 year Ban and £380,
they came to his work to arrest him as the Chief ****stable thought he shouldnt be on the road so was taken to the Magistrates and they banned him there and then for 2 years.

You should read all the posts on here before you reply. He (Killer)clearly stated in his first post that he was stopped by the police when he did the said offence. According to him, they let him go as they didn't have enough evidence as to what speed he was doing. The fact that he was stopped automatically a check is carried out on the car ie: registered owner, insurance, Mot. then a person check is done to see that they are who they say they are, and that they have a licence/ disqualifications etc. All this is logged. Now later on that night killer came on here and clearly stated that he was doing 130mph, all thats needed is for a cop to read this and report to the CPS/procurator fiscal to implement prosecution. His admission and the witness reports from the cops that stopped him would be enough to convict. Have you never heard about the Japanese businessman caught, after he stupidly filmed himself on the A9 in Scotland doing 200mph then sold it later as a DVD. WE AWAIT HIS ARREST

Don't know why everyone is still responding to this thread (yes, including me!). THE MAN DID 130MPH IN A 50MPH ZONE AND GOT LET OFF. END OF STORY!

He hasn't murdered, raped, robbed or hurt anyone. Yes, it was incredible stupid to A) do it, and B) admit to it on a public forum, but what are we going to do about it? Stamp up and down behind our keyboards in a hissy fit?
Come on peeps, let this thread die!

I hear that island is also full of great looking ladies that understand that as a man of the world, you simply cannot be tied to just the one woman for the rest of your life and need to plough a different field every night? What an island that must be!
