In a car, 8pm on a clear sunny evening in the summer, on the A120 outside Colchester. Caught by a copper with a speedgun, NIP arrived within time, court in Feb.

I would say it's not me, but no-one believes that anyway! For the record though, it's not smile


What do we think the outcome will be? Worth getting a solicitor, or just begging like crazy?

Honestly chaps, it wasn't me driving, promise! laugh

You've been more optimistic than me, I'll say that much. I said to him that he could well be looking at more than a few months ban with a huge fine. Do you think it'll make any difference if he's already got points, or not really at this point.

I call BS on this story. No-one has managed to get up to that speed on that stretch of road!
We don't know which stretch of road it was. I'm guessing it was the other way towards Clacton.
Bingo.

I really don't understand people who go to court and DON'T wear a suit and tie. If you're homeless and can't afford one then fine, but otherwise it's an easy chance to score some brownie points before the court.
