was caught yesterday doing an average of 98.86mph on M1 and was given a summons by traffic cops anyone (simon) know what i'm looking at points/ban? is there owt to look out for on summons etc for getting off?

other than that was a good day as i was off for the car remapping hence setting off late and putting foot down to try make some time up with M1 not been that busy but nay mind new figures are 392bhp and 356ftlb

 

Few years back I got caught doing an average of 101 mph which got me 6 points and a £90 fine not sure on how you may be able to get off, but my advice would be pay for a solicitor if going to court. I did and thats why i only got points as usually anything over a ton is a ban. Hopefully as you were just under i'd guess at points and a fine, would have thought 6 points on a positive note. . . Nice figures after the re map

 

I got caught doing 103 on A64, had to go to court and I used the duty solicitor on the day.

I got £255 and 6 points but no ban.

 

Scotts mum got caught doing 32mph so im sure you will be fine...

on a more serious note, fabulous figures swifty...

 

thought it would be round the 6 points mark and no ban fingers crossed. proper p*ssed me off tho when i was in back off cop car as i had good cop and bad cop first cop was fine but other was a complete and utter w*nker saying if it was upto me i'd tear your licience up and inpound your car etc which i saw no need for it seen as i said sorry etc

 

yeah was pleased with figures but drive home want as fun as normal as they seemed to be out in force yesterday guess funds must be running low

 

You have PM

 

thanks si pm sent back

 

i got caught at an average of 93, 3 points and £40 fine

 

I was done 10 yrs ago, 99mph. 6 points and £250.

 

thanks everyone for the replies was hoping it would be points rather than a ban

thanks everyone

 

I got caught on m62 coming back from Blyton earlier on in the year, first speed was 106mph and second was 93mph, got 3 points and £60 fine. You should be ok mate

 

i was also coming back from last yrs blyton got done at 93.3 and a £215 fine and a 5pointer ... total 11

 

do ya not have radar detectors?


or tomtoms showing bridges n speed cams cop parking areas on the motorways.

btw ive been banned twice

once when i was 16 60mph in a 30 plus... no insurance no mot no tax no test passed..
once when i was 19 71mph in a 30 6 points ban ext retest

 

was a traffic cop following so non of the above anygood for that only spotted him when it was too late

 

marked or unmarked?

 

11 **** me so you've got 1 point left hope you don't drive like you did at sso

 

marked normally spot them from a mile off too but not this time

 

Was caught a few years ago doing 96.8mph. (There are nice coppers out there ) I accepted the slap on the wrist and agreed to a fixed penalty there and then. 3 points £60 fine.

Hopefully you should get points and fine as its under 100mph.

 

yeah put my hands up but they said at 98.8 it was out of there hands as i would of taken 3 if it had been on offer

 

Any news swiftster????

 

nowt as of yet been reading different places and they say it can take upto 6months for them to get intouch. which seems along time to me.

you and scott off to oem tomorrow?

 

6 months, like to keep you hanging on i suppose, its like them whole producer thingys, i have had to do them a couple of times as i only look 12 and a typical every day joy rider, its all to inconvenience you....

Scott definately is going to EOM....

I might have to work, got an event on and desperately trying to find an event manager to run it for me, otherwise i will have to be there

Still on with sorting it though, really wanted to come as we missed last months as we were on holiday and then this months is the anniversary i might hang around make sure everything is ok and see you all there later on....

 

think there doing some pics at this eom with it been 4th year.

you off to totb?

 

of course, we went last year and it was fabulous really enjoyed it, and little legs was in the mags who covered it...

Just hope the weather is ok, down for showers at the minute

 

Nice figures mate, similar power to RLE's

 

hopefully weather will hold off but can't see it happening but shall be there come rain or shine

 

yeah same figures looked at both map charts and RLE's comes in earlier power wise then halfway mine takes over so in real world not much difference driving wise

 

just to update the out come. only taken 5 months

got 5points, £150 fine and £55 costs so not too bad i guess

 

i got caught at 100.5 average speed on the 62 last year... went to ponti court, pleaded guilty, and walked away with 5 points 250 fine and 40 costs.
