Well i got caught doing 70 through a 50 after japfest by an unmarked car and have been issued with a £60 fine and 3 points. My own fault just gave it a quick blip and unknown to me he was behind me, its a fair cop guv as they say. Was just wondering if anyone knows how much roughly my insurance is gonna jump up by?

If you only have those 3 pts for speeding i doubt it will rise at all. Be sure to phone your insurance company and tell them or they could invalidate your insurance if you have an accident. Most allow upto 6 points for speeding without too much hassle unless you're a youngster.

Depends who you're insured with.... different companies will load different amounts (some nothing, some a lot)

Unlikely to be much at all, if anything (more than likely nothing)

Got had by a silver audi i am always really careful going to and from show because i know they are about but the mate who was leading was just going through a set of lights and just wanted to catch him up. Oh well my own fault but these things happen.

Should i wait until i get my points to inform the insurance or phone up monday and inform of issued ticket?

In theory you don't need to let us know untill renewal time, but probably best to get your details updated.

These un-marked police cars being use for Traffic policing gets my goat. The primary objective of the police is to prevent crime rather than catch. Posting a jam sandwich in full view would have prevented peeps from speeding. Using an un-marked car only serves one purpose !

North Yorkshire's finest were outside Harewood Hillclimb today, but were busy with a MK.II. Golf. But the two guys on bikes gave me a nasty stare...

28 in a 30 limit

No need to inform Insurance Company until renewal as far as I am aware?

chopperman

I thought you had to notify as it's a change of circumstance? I personally would say anything until my licence came back stamped with the points. It's not unheard of for tickets to be dropped. A friend of mine was all booked up to go on a driver awareness course when they received a letter and refund. Turned out there was a problem with the equipment used. Rare but keep your fingers crossed.

Thanks for all the advice and info it has cheered me up. I suppose on the up side i drove like a vicar for the next 100 or so miles and saved some fuel. Apart from that incident had a good day at japfest.

was that an unmarked bmw ? if so there was a man pulling a wheelie n got pulled over just as i left japfest , not sure what happened but i think the copper must have gave him a fine he had a flip up chase plate e.t.c

I saw a unmarked BMW with a hand held speed gun as you entered a 30mph just after leaving Japfest
