Speeding fines in 306s
#24
Another believer in 306 immunity here.

In the GTi:

Stopped for the straight through decatted Magnex by VOSA. Played the "was like that when I got it and not been able to afford a new exhaust" card. Got told I had a week to fix it, sold Magnex, bought standard exhaust, made £30 profit.

Stopped the day after I painted it by two officers in a van in Glasgow. They tried for half an hour to find out if any offences had been committed, they hadn't as the copshop radio'd back to say if I sent the V5 away to be amended there's nothing i've done wrong, just that the ANPR hadn't been updated yet. They looked devastated and tried to warn me "if we see you here again after a week without the correct paperwork we'll be having a more serious chat". Er, DVLA says 4-6 weeks to receive the V5 back, I think they tried to tell me I wasn't allowed to drive the car for that long?

Had a passing window down comment of "in a rush, are we?" from a Panda car, went no further.

Hit 130mph on an empty private race track at night and just about managed to slow down enough before it joined a public road where the Traffics were joining from a slip road

Spent a good year or so doing 40mph in what I thought was a 40mph limit past a speed camera almost every day before I discovered it was actually a 30mph limit and the camera had been decommissioned lmao

Other cars?

106 - stopped doing about 100mph by a 530 traffic car on the M6, they did a few checks as i'd reported my plates stolen a month earlier, was told to "take it easy"

Stopped doing 40mph in a 30mph zone in Edinburgh, ironically me and a pal were bored so decided to be chavs for a laugh and donned our finest leisurewear and peaked caps, only to be stopped and told we were being let off because we "seemed more educated than the typical boy racer", so i think they believed we don't normally dress like that lmao

Stopped at 3am in Blackpool doing the customary 17 year old laps of the town centre for driving down a bus lane. Told them I didn't see the sign, they pointed out it was about 10ft tall on both sides of the road as you enter it. Got let off as my sister was on the Police radios that night and vouched for me, got a bollocking off the parents for being a dick though..

205 never got stopped, although the tax expired as it failed its MOT badly (rear beam, typical), I hid it in a private car park where i wasnt a resident, it got lifted and I couldn't afford the release fee so told them to scrap it and removed my valuables from it

Here's the best bit.

The estate? Never been stopped. Ever.
