... it just means you have been lucky and as more cameras are being deployed your luck may run out one day very soon

If you think my clean driving licence is purely down to luck you are very much mistaken. As I said earlier, I'm an ex-driving instructor. I read the road ahead which obviously you don't (otherwise you wouldn't have been caught).

If you say it's bad luck you got caught because the speed limit sign had been moved, that's no excuse at all. It just shows you drive without paying attention. How many other road signs do you not notice because you're not paying attention?

Just because it's a road you use every day doesn't mean you should switch your brain off.

If you're driving around not noticing signs, you're a danger to yourself and others. If you're speeding as well as driving around without paying attention, then you really ought to hand your car keys in and take the bus for the sake of us all.

I'll let you know when I kill a complete stranger on a wide clear open road with no hazards when speeding in good weather conditions. Don't hold your breath though, as I said in a previous post when driving I use the brain I was blessed with and tend to read the road and look further than my own speedometer - sometimes it's not safe to break a speed limit, sometime it is.

Is that right then you clever little man, well the way you keep ranting on like you do means you must be having brainstorms and i pity anyone who took driving lessons from you, and with a ranting brain like yours you should hand in your keys and go and see a shrink, speed cameras are there purely to raise revenue and no ammount of ranting by you or anyone else will change my view on that, and for the record i passed my test in 1967 and also hold an HGV1 and have driven thousands of miles here and on the continent without having an accident and this is the first time i have been caught speeding which i think makes your little rant look pretty pathetic, but there again with a ranting brain that has nothing constructive to say you probably cannot see that.

I told it like it was, a group of skinheads, who had cut a swaztica out on my cousins back and dragged a 75year old woman 100yrds by her handbag were terrorising everyone in a town including the police. Now some people have enough spine to deal with issues like that, so when the produced swords and began waving them at me I drove strait over them, it was not an accident although my brief ran with the story I had my eyes closed in fear. When asked by the judge I showed no remorse other than I would miss my family after he senteced me. He handed down the minimum sentence he could give in terms of jail so I guess, like everyone else who is normal I have spoke to they wish they had the bottle to put the pedal to the metal. As for the peanut, sad shit I will take that as a fucking joke from a mr perfect.

no dont. leave it 2 weeks and blame a friend for driving ur car. then 2 weeks later he will get the letter through his door. leave answering the letter for 3 weeks, then return it saying he knows nothing about it . you could then say that at your work a few people use your car and at that time u though it was your friend in it but was mistaken. then say uve no idea who was in the car but just in good will you will settle the ?60-00 fine in any case. write the cheque and thats it. ask for a recept. its worked at our company 4 times now. its the money there after , hope this can help somebody.
