How valuable is your licence to you? Less than the cost of a solicitor?

You need some tactical advice from a motoring specialist.

Man up and accept responsibility. Doing over 100mph is not ok. You can't say the road was empty as you yourself said there were other cars travelling equally fast. You couldn;t have been paying much attention to your surroundings as you didn't spot the police car for 10 miles (I'm sure you would have mentioned if it was un-marked)

Sorry, I thought you said that there were other cars doing similar speeds - were there other cars or not??

How do you imagine he would've managed to stop the other people doing ~100mph at the same time as pulling you over?

Always confuses me when people say "why didn't you stop the other ones too", like it's somehow physically possible.

On topic, 10 miles @ 106-120mph on a DC is not good. You'd probably need a decent solicitor to avoid a ban.

Speak to a solicitor and don't repeat any of your so called excuses posted on here in court. On second thoughts don't say anything.
I'm surprised you haven't being caught before as you probably make a habit of traveling at over a ton whilst being followed by "unknown" cars.

Yes, they can show the video in court. Whether they've still got it is important. That and other issues are why you ought to consult with a specialist.

What a boring forum this is to keep pointing out the obvious sleep like you lot have never driven over the speed limit!

No, there are just ways and means of asking the question... Expect robust discussion in PH.

Anyhow, I posted you a helpful lawyer. Follow up with him to see how you stand...
