Had the verdict! - Sian - 25-02-2015
So as you all may know I was asking you all what I would receive for the speeding ticket I got the other day. Received the letter this morning, Have 3 points and a £100 fine. No option of anything else! Bascially yes im an idiot it's all my fault. More gutted about the fine really, But there it is!! Now cry with me haha

We've all been there, no choice but to suck it up chick, was only £60 last time I got done though.... Learn where your local cameras are and drive to the limit round strange towns and cities, you can always get t' foot down on motorways and nsl b roads x

You should have the choice of going to court surely if you believe you didn't commit the offence.

I saw this on Facebook as Sam commented on it. Assumed it was you. Chalk it up to experience and go from there. I thankfully got off speeding once. I was very grateful and to be honest it has made me a better driver.

Speak for yourself Matt, I (somehow!
) have never had points or a fine for speeding! 
Harsh one for you though Siân, but as has been said, you SHOULD learn and become a better driver off the back of this.

Lol, yeah that would suck! Feel for you mate. I don't doubt it will happen to me sooner or later, but so far I've been lucky.

Wonder what the premium increase will be..
RE: Had the verdict! - welshpug - 25-02-2015
1st offence, nothing typically.

Do you mind?
I'm trying to freak her out...

My other half got an sp30 42 43 from memory. Increase in premium was £14 for the year. Won't be much if any

What's the point I was going 42 in a 30 ive therefore commited an offence! Ha! No point trying to appeal it! Il end up with more points and a heftier fine!

My mum was doing 35 in a 30 got 3 points and a £80 fine!
RE: Had the verdict! - Mattcheese31 - 25-02-2015
Yes I get it was a gun, that's what I meant though, they have set places where they go, I know them all in about a ten mile radius of where I live
RE: Had the verdict! - Nathan1305 - 25-02-2015
I got pulled doing 50mph in a 30 and the officer just said don't do it again
I would have thought I would have been done being a young driver in a modified car
RE: Had the verdict! - toseland - 25-02-2015

I drive that road a lot! I did say to him I thought it was 40! But he said as soon as you pass the farm it's 30. So it goes from national speed limit to 30 :/ which I thought was weird but hey. Done now
