Isn't that a bit harsh? All the A30 through Devon is dual carriageway NSL, so a 4-week ban for 24mph over the limit's quite severe.

After the hearing he said: "They treated me very well considering it was the fifth time.

Why didn't he just tell them that he'd recently had an MOT or something on the car and he was now exploring the handling and limits of it

I cant imagine speeding on the concrete section though, I value my ears too much.

Well I can only hope that Greenpeace stick to their principles and walk out on Glastonbury in disgust. Then all it needs is for Eavis to pick a worthy charity and I might consider going to the festival as I'll have a clear conscience

Hmmm, Greenpeace put principles before money???
