Can anyone help me out, I've just returned from a great holiday in Cornwall and found on my doorstep a Notice of Intended Prosecution from Devon and Cornwall Police.

Now, the time and date of the NIP is roughly around the time I was travelling down and I don't intend to contest it but I'd love to know where exactly I did this bit of speeding.

Does anyone know where this is and if so can you pin it on Google maps for me.

"A30 Temple Roadworks (Colliford Lake Towards Helland JCT), NR Bodmin, Cornwall.

Recorded speed was 50mph - Speed limit 40 mph.

I'm just curious if its a fixed camera or average speed as most roadworks are 50 limit. I can't remember this bit of the A30 at all but it was a long drive.\

Thanks.

Thanks Tuffer, I've also just found this.

Looks like it might have been average speed cameras. I'm surprised at that as I normally religiously stick to the limit in these, must have assumed it was 50mph - oops frown

No mention in the NIP, I'll have to see what comes. I did get caught a few months ago by a camera (after 15 years clean twice now in a couple of months) and then it was clearly mentioned on the NIP that it might be an option. As it happens, in that case I was too far over the limit to do a course.

If not, I'm on 6 points now for 3 years so need to be extra vigilante for those bloody cameras, and keep my speed down a bit.
