One point I'd like to make about the 20 mph specifically is that I'm a cyclist as well as a driver. 20 mph can easily be achieved and surpassed if one is fit enough (and yes officer, I believe I'll also be caught for speeding - I almost got fined for doing 37mph once but he let me off with a smile unfortunately - proof of such a speed would have been framed and hung on the wall).
Now that's strange; speed limits apply to motor vehicles only (except in some Royal Parks). What offence did the police officer suggest you'd comitted?
