I still don't get how they can confiscate an official document issued by a foreign country?
How can it be under their jurisdiction???

Their gaff, their rules. French criminal law and procedure prevail over anything to the contrary from another country. Are you suggesting that British police could not seize documents held by a foreign national suspected of involvement in some shenanigans within the UK?

In the UK a deserted bypass between a port and a main road wouldn't be a 30mph limit it would be a NSL. Never done 90 down a bypass before? Arse.
Maybe express yourself better ? (and stop fracking crying about it....) You were lucky to get your car awaydannyDC2 said:
I ended up in the commercial bit where I shouldn't have been and was running late to catch the 4 o'clock sailing.
I was driving down an empty road in the middle of nowhere at speed when two police officers walked into the road,

I never said it was a bypass. I don't even know what is french for bypass. I was just likening it to a long straightish road like we have back home.

That is the car park where they pulled me over. As you can see there aren't any signs warning me of my speed prior to that. Maybe look about a bit when driving ?......but there is NO chance EVERY of that being a road where 90mph is allowed now is it ?
90mph isn't "allowed" anywhere but the autobahn, but every now and then you've got to push on.

You're acting like I'm complaining about getting caught speeding. I'm not. I'm asking what will likely happen to my licence. I take full responsibility of what happened, it was my fault. No matter how stupid that speed limit is.
