"...normal £240 penalty".
Ha !
For exactly the same offence I was fined £750 with £275 costs and 3 points. |

Erm... isn't that breaking the law?
It sounds like a "voluntary confession" to me.
Perhaps someone from the CPS should take this further. |

You have been accused of committing a criminal act.
Why don't you threaten the accusers with "defamation of character" or "libel" ?
Maybe the Police should charge them with "wasting Police time".
After all, they will have no useable evidence that you have committed this criminal act. |

| What have any of the above to do with exceeding a posted speed limit ? Two things. First, the faster you go, the more likely to are to crash seriously and second, the more disregard you show to the law, the more likely it is that you are an unpleasant non-entity. . On your first point - have you re... |

I'm glad that you have taken all the (constructive) criticism in good humour.
Your ideas were not dismissed without thought.
Have another think and come back with some more for discussion.  |

Don't you realise that most accidents happen at speeds below the limit. Will a small, underpowered, poorly-accelerating car improve the driver's ability to ... |

| Did anyone hear Terry Wogan talking about speed cameras this morning. It sounds like he is definately on our side as he called Brunstrom "that mad Chief Constable". With his millions of loyal listeners I think he would be an excellent high-profile supporter. Paul, have you sent him any information ?... |
