I don't believe you, but how about this. If you scan and post it, then I'll pay for your wife's fine or SAC and any increase in her car insurance premium as a result for the next 5 years whilst this is on her licence and declareable for insurance purposes.

Come on, there's a good incentive in there to prove me wrong and get some money out of me.

Over to you
But the money is of no concern to him biggrin

It clearly didn't happen as posted, so no ticket will appear

Regardless of what our individual views are on speeding and its enforcement, this line that's trotted out on an all too regular basis is the biggest load of old tripe on PH.

If this actually applies to you, if you really cannot stay below a posted limit without constantly checking your speedo, then the sooner you incur 12 points and are hoofed off the road the better for all of us.
Well put.

Agreed. We all know it didn't happen at the speed suggested, but I'm bored of the BS claims on here about being done for such low speeds. I've been done a fair few times in my life and all of them were well over the limit.

I'm going to ask for proof and make offers like te above on all of them. Failure to provide is sufficient proof that it didn't happen IMO. If they provide it then I'll pay.

The entrapment claim adds a rare jewel to an otherwise boring missive.

What police act induced OP to drive at a fictional 34mph, do we think?

Was it the lure of a undercover cyclist's tight fitting arse-lycra?

Was it chemtrails bearing with them the basic plot premise of the film 'Death Race 2000'?

Enquiring minds demand to know.

Doesn't entrapment need some deception or encouragement of some sort?

+1 If it's so hard not to speed how do so many people manage to pass their driving test without speeding?

I got a speeding ticket for doing 30 Loon! If I post it up here would you pay my premiums for 5 years?

Admittedly it was in a 20 limit but if you don't ask you don't get.

Thames Valley don't issue tickets any more. It's a report for summons that goes to a central department who decide an outcome. I'd be amazed if someone was told that get a course at the roadside.

So I don't believe it either.

biggrin Thanks for the offer but like I said, the money and course are of absolutely no concern, she'll attend and that will be that. I must admit I'm impressed at the tenacity to disprove the speed though. My main point was exactly how this was set up and what a calculated piece of work it was by a police force who apparently don't have enough resources? Maybe it was a sheer coincidence, I very much doubt it though. If this all has been lost in the thread while you have been arguing among yourselves then you need to read it all again. Or not. I don't mind. Slow day today, 4mph slower than yesterday infact wink

Just as well, that, seeing as the ticket isn't 'available'.

That's how it is on PH these days, post something and then get loads of silly people trying to make it into something it's not.

I believe you have been guilty of that with me if my memory serves me correctly, so you can hardly complain smile

Who me? Were you the one who parks in P&C spaces and thinks children are the embodiment of Satan himself, or the one who was going to 'kill a cyclist'? I lose track of everyone's misdemeanors getmecoat
