Got a nip in the post this morning from a road where there is a scamera and a van regulaly parked by the side of the road. I pass this spot a LOT. Sometimes 6 times a day in the course of work. Both camera and van positions are engrained in my memory and are obvious for all to see. There is NOOOOO way I would have gone past either at 36 mph (30 limit), even in my sleep whilst dreaming I was driving a GT40 or whatever that was invisible to all forms of speed detection. Obviously will ask for photographic evidence, wont sign etc, but at the moment I am so sorry for reading posts simillar to this and not feeling more sympathetic. I will stop and have a conversation with the operator of the van next time I pass it, but doubt it will do any good. Mean time, any advice for me when I finally calm down ?

Thanks but there is as I said, NOOOOOO way that I was doing 36. Absoutley NOOOOO way. I know this location like the inside of my wallet. I always obey the limit here. a) cos its a built up area and b) cos its got a camera and a regular van.

Streetcop, you dont seem to be reading what I write. I know that every time I pass the camera and van on this road that I am whithin the 30 limit. I never have to think " shit I hope I wasnt over 30" cos I go down this road so many times a week, I know camera/van,traffic lights, side turnings, pedestrians etc, didnt happen, Nooo Way.

by the way Streetcop, why is 'your force' different to my force. If your force would ignore my 36, why did not mine?

Great, if I broke speed limits in stupid places and drank and drove I guess I might want to move into your area.

Thanks to turbobloke and De Molay for the link to pepipoo, gonna check it out tommorow. Honest guys, more chance of driving into my garage without opening the door than speeding in this road.!!!

Agree 100 %. But how can you have such a conversation with a piece of paper that arrives on you doorstep. ?????
