i knew this day would come!!

[e30bmlover]

well as most of you might know, the norwich ring road is my playground... smug in the fact that i have never been caught speeding... until today... i recived a letter... not by recorded post may i add...



ok... so hedge your bets... what can i expect??
im pissed off lol... i didnt get a ticket in the e30

[Jon_Bmw]

£60 and 3 points I would think.

[e30bmlover]

the bastards!!

[blitz877]

how long has it taken to arrive?? there is a loophole with these mate

[e30bmlover]

well thats the thing mate... the motherinlaw has a habbit of hiding the post.. i found it today... oh my missus has just owned up to it...

[Jon_Bmw]

Date is 03.08.09. You are buggered.

Mobile camera I presume?

[blitz877]

serriously, find out when the offence happened and the date you received it, if its longer than 6 weeks request photgraphic evidence first

[e30bmlover]

the thing is... if i had saw the flash i would have known.. but this is out of the @ucking blue!! they wont dampen my spirits!! i will pay their ransom!!

[Alex]

ouch, my mate was pulled over doing 85 in a 50 last night and got away with it

i would imagine 3 points and a fine as above

[e30bmlover]

well when you drive like i do this is what happens!! in all the years i have been driving i have broke the speed limit 99% of the time... the 1% is me keeping to the limit because of the car infront slowing me down or i have been warned that the scum is waiting up the road, i do flash them and wave as i go past, then down a cog and drop the proverbial hammer... saying that if everyone drove like me i feel the congestion problems in Great Britain would be solved...

[Nobby_N]

3 points and £60

3 points & £60 fine or you may get offered a speed awareness course which costs £60 and no points.

They posted it 3rd August and the offence committed on 27th July, so they are wihtin the 14 days they are required to send out the NIP.

In my opinion, little point trying to be a hero contesting it and playing games not revealing who was driving etc, or asking for calibration certificates etc etc

[beanoir]

cost of a tank of fuel and 3 points, hardly worth worrying about....unless you already have 9 points!

[Ian_M]

Got what you deserved I'm afraid!

Hopefully you'll end up with a ban, driving like a prick isn't big, clever... cool.. whatever.

Just wait until you run out of talent and kill someone. See if you come on here bragging then!

[djk]

Yup, take your medicine. I used to drive like a tit, but two lots of 3 points within a month of each other persuaded me to calm down. All from mobile cameras too - they're the buggers that can catch you out.

[Nay]

Gutted mate. Oh well, you got away with it for a while

BTW, loving the attempt at hiding your reg in the document, yet its plain as site in your sig!

Oh and 328i Coupe/M3 Busted!:teehee:

[TheHeap]

mother got caught doing this in my e36 318is and she opted for the £75.00 fine and 4hrs speed awareness course

[TheHeap]

Got what you deserved I'm afraid!

copper alert!

[Ian_M]

Not a copper, I know someone that has died thanks to this sort of driving.

So I feel quite strongly about it, that's all.

[gooner1]

You brought it on yourself Tim, having said that, is there one person on here that
has not exceeded the speed limit at one time or another.

[Simon13]

points win prizes! i had 9 by the time i was 19 and a trip to court thrown in too. Not funny. Time and a place Timmy boy and a ring road isn't it, norfolk is filled with nice quiet roads no?

[spook]

117 MPH in a 2.8 Capri, blowin the doors off a Skoda estelle

Magistrate, Spookster why where you going so fast....

I was going down hill m lud

i love you too i like your construcitve comments you make on my threads... point taken on this occasion however.
yeah the attempt was crap at hiding the reg lol... i did notice it but i hoped others wouldnt lol...
yeah bert norfolk has some quiet roads.. but the ring road is where its at as she can really stretch her legs... i took it into work to... to show everyone... they all said the same.. its about @ucking time lol.

this sort of driving?? it wasnt as if i was driving recklessly, or stoned as a @unt... i was in full control of the vehicle and if i needed to i could stop the bastard on a 2p... yes i was speeding no i wasnt driving like a cock.

here here!! its the old bastards that drive at 20mph that need to be locked up... driving too slow is a hazard also!! everyone over the age of 50 should re take their driving test to todays standards... if they dont pass... they dont drive.. i dont give a @uck if they got taught in the army back in '' the day '' ... you dont pass... you dont @ucking drive..simple.

[mabz]

i cant stand these sort of answers ,

it drives me mad ,
the sort of person that looks down on people driving fast down their road but would drive fast them selfs down other peoples roads because they think they are better drivers than others or thinks everyone that over takes them is a lunitic because they themselfs hold traffic up in the middle lane.

sorry but if your the sort of person that watches tv programs so they can complain about them not just ignoor them and turn over the you need to learn the way of the world and get your head out of your .......

So you drive like dickheads so we all do?

Fucking morons!

Love how you stick up for it, but I've seen other 'newbs' being condemned for saying how they speed down a dual carriage way at night.

There is nothing clever about it and when it affects you personally then you might take a different view on it.

EDIT: This is my last post on this topic, I don't think anyone here is in agreement with me. I stick by what I've posted anyway.

I save stupid driving for track days, living near goodwood helps.

[oakey]

^ I understand your point fully Ian. BUT he was caught doing 53mph in a 40. Not exactly driving like a dickhead??

[Ian_M]

I know, I went off a bit on one.. Sorry for that. It was aimed at the quotes, not the OP.

Now I've gone back on what I said about not posting, last post. Honest.

[djk]

Calm down kids! I think e30bmlover's comment about driving over the speed limit 99% of the time probably touched a nerve - I'm sure that wasn't a purely scientific measure though! When it comes down to it, we all like to balance the enjoyment of driving with the risks - everyone's opinion on the precise location of this ideal compromise is different, but at least we're all thinking about it, rather than blindly driving flat out everywhere. 53 in a 40 isn't the world's biggest crime, but it is an infringement and must be dealt with. It's best to remember to drive to the conditions of the road you are on, almost regardless of the speed limit - yesterday I drove along a cambered, twisty, single track road lined with houses with driveways, and the limit was 40; frankly 20mph felt risky in the circumstances!

[e30bmlover]

its a true statment though ( driving over the speed limit 99% of the time )... i just cant help it!! lucky i only have a 328, what would it have been in a m3evo?? it would have been an instant ban... thats what it would have been... i would have felt the torque with a grin on my face, maybe the ass would have kicked out... while my licence is going up in flames!!!
