Got my court hearing this morning.
Some of you (Anton) may remeber my case: alleged offence committed in January 06: dual carriageway, mobile camera van from opposite carriageway.

TODAY I WON!

Acquitted of all charges! and I asked for my car parking charges to be refunded(£3).

Didn't even involve a solicitor.

If I think I could have bent over and got 3 points and paid 60 pounds...

That's good news :thumbsup: What was the reason for the acquittal?

None given. Prosecution just decided not to proceed.

I have seen too many photos of too many sites, was your case where the camera van was parked on the exit from a little chef some way from the carriageway?
