set the speed limiter at 70 - my brother just got pinged for 72 in a 70, on a dc near york. zero tolerance innit.

Wtf????
Where?

[Bendy Ben]

well he should appeal it cos they "allow" 10%......

Or get a good solicitor..... I happen to know a fairly decent firm in the city

ben - i don't think he earns enough to be able to afford a bad brief, let alone a good one.

they 'can allow 10% on discretion' (as it was put at my recent speed awareness course, for being a barely naughty boy on the m42) - and in this case it was zero tolerance. i know some people pinged for 32 in 30 as well, so by no means isolated. sos - it was on the first few miles on the a64 toward york (around tadcaster). apparently the plod are known for sitting on bridges and disused laybyes getting people there.

[Bendy Ben]

Well that's outrageous.

I should have been stuck on - I admit that but 2 mph !!! That's plain daft.

How can he tell 2 mph on his speedo - I'd appeal anyway - basically he will get the same fine and points as me and I was 21 mph over the national speed limit.

I'm not for one second saying I should have a harsher penalty but he shouldn't be prosecuted for that. No way. Poor bloke.

i hope he is appealing, but otherwise i'd say the little bastard deserves it - better looking than me and got a better degree. all i've got left is my marginally cleaner driving license and my tri-skillz.
