B****r! Just recieved a NIP from the South Wales police: 93 on the M4 in some godforsaken part of the Principality. I''ve read all about this Human Rights act/pleading the 5th ammendment malarkey. Hmmmm. I''ve a better one: implausability. I mean, 93 on the M4 in Wales at any time let alone lunchtime on a a Bank Holiday Saturday?!? Please ... you''re making that up!

write a letter to the station that sent you the NIP, on the lines of "Im really sorry, I never do anything that stupid, and cant believe I was so irresponsible....please can I have a copy of the photo or come and view it at the station" type thing....will then find out whether or not it was in fact possible or otherwise!

Just a thought, If you are not over the white ruler markings on the road after a gatso, i.e. On the other side of the road, could you still get flashed? And if it did flash would it take a photo of the poor person who was being overtaken?
