hi guys recently got caught over taking a police car at 124 mph- was in all the papers as the bill were just ready to start a campaign about speeding
anyway pleaded guilty by letter-didn't have any points so thought id get points and a big fine
nop the magistrate wishes for my personal apperrance feck
it was a fully marked police car they have the chase on dvd they only got my at 124 cos there big ass Volvo takes ages to get to high speed
what sort of ban am I looking at or are they gonna make an example of me

Good luck mate, I can't help with your question, but just ignore the self righteous holier than thou answers that will be coming your way on here.

The only thing I would say is given the speed differential involved I would get a lawyer on board to mitigate the circumstances as much as possible.

You went past a jam sandwich and only got clocked at 124MPH because it took too long for the officer to get up to speed to start measuring yours.... okay...

How long did your mate spend in prison for being caught at 154MPH in a 50?

I'd imagine his car is in fact a bike.

to be fair, anybody who does 124mph past a fully marked up Police car in a 50mph limit deserves everything coming his way. There will be a ban of at least 2 years, a fine and a retest.

Its not luck he needs, he needs proper legal advice and a little time to review his observation skills.

I guess him mentioning a (motor)bike probably means he wasn't in a car.

To be fair, 50mph is ridiculously slow along this road. Pretty much every car will be doing 70-80mph along there.

To be even more fair, 124mph is probably a tad too quick biggrin

Anyone doing 124 in a 50 is probably too stupid to have a licence. Anyone who thinks you'd just get points plus a fine for that is definitely too stupid to have a licence.
