Got pulled by an unmarked BMW 3 series on the Dundee-Aberdeen road this morning - 86.97mph in a 70mph.

However, full credit to the two BiB onboard: into the back of the car, shown the video, wrote a ticket and then I was back on my way (albeit slightly slower) within 5 mins.

No condescending chat or patronising lecture. I knew I been caught out, they knew I knew, and they dealt with very fairly.

So even though I could do without another 3 points, no criticism of the BiB involved. Job well done (he says through gritted teeth).

Unlucky. Down my way it's only camcorder yielding monkeys in hidden vans dishing out tickets for those sorts of speeds.

Ho hum, the law is the law, and I'm a ballet dancer.

Sorry to hear of your misfortune mate...But I applaude your fantastic attitude to take it like a man and not bleat about the issue..The old saying can't do the time don't do the crime"

Just take it easy for a few years and the points will be off before you know it..

Take care

86 on that road? I travel that route a few times a year and would not see that as reckless speed. Can only have been for a short time anyway, considering all the scameras! (or is that just my memory playing tricks?) Aren`t there also signs warning of unmarked cars?

Why dont they go and catch some real criminals!!!!!!
