Speeding 107.7mph caught today A130 Southend Bound
Discussion
any one no how longer ban i am likely to get and how much the fine will be??I think it all depends on your situation, if you need the car for work etc.. it IS possible to get away with no ban, but not as likely as say 28 days with a % salary fine...
I'm afraid the A130 is prime scumera territory with a nice new bit of road which is super straight, often see them there boosting the pension fund. Hell, there was a static camera placed behind the bridge about a week before the road opened.

What was the traffic like?
DOn't worry, i'm not about to say, ooh bad man think of the children etc, I was recently caught for a higher speed in a 60 limit and the traffic and conditions made my case far better than the guy at a lower speed but more traffic, he was far worse off.
Dave!

The fine will be means tested so best to work out your outgoings and incomings, A friend of mine had a £500 fine for 110 on a clear motorway in good driving conditions. You can mitigate for points or ban depending on how you want it to play out. That's of course if you want to plead guilty.

Get on with some work Steve?
I only transfered my plate yesterday and to make it worse took out my Origin B2 because it was faulty pending the arrival of anwew one and that used to scream at me when i went over 100 to remind me that i was entering that forbidden 3 figure territory.Paul

the limit updating to a sensible level.
Then campaign for it (not that I can see you having much luck getting the limit raised to that), but if you break the limit by such margins & are spotted, it is extremely likely that you will get reported. Believing you won't is naive in the extreme. If your licence means anything to you, if it's a necessity for you, then it is extremely foolish to do such speeds. vonhosen said:

Factually incorrect.Millions of Germans do that speed and faster
every day.
Much more accurate to say that it is extremely
foolish to regard slow driving as safe driving and
fast driving as dangerous driving.
It depends entirely on the conditions.
Or were you suggesting that breaking a bad law
by some 40 mph is extremely foolish ?
