jonah. 775 Posted March 6, 2017 Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 You'll be fine as you have a clean license, no need to fret. Your insurance premiums will hardly alter with 9 points (worst case) for fixed penalty speeding, you may even be able to get rid of 3 points with a speed awareness course. Invest in a Satnav with camera guidance and live updates, put it on full volume and use it religiously. Yes it will annoy but , it will slow you down through cameras. Chin up Ow.

The one 8,503 Posted March 6, 2017 Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 Plead your case but the fact that youve been caught three times in the same place your no paying attention Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Seeker 3,048 Posted March 6, 2017 Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 Did you not think the cameras were operational? Just curious why you got done on same stretch? As others have said max 9 points probably 6, you won't lose your licence until 12 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bracken boy 584 Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 Not going to say I haven't done soon speed in my 30 ish years driving but not a single point on my licence, but last 15 years I've hardly gone over the speed limit, I only do 70 on Mways now, too easy to get caught, hope you don't get bad news pal.

WILF 47,402 Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 I have done hundreds of thousands of miles all over Britain over my working life and seen some terrible driving. Speed is normally nearly always the deciding factor in accidents, so I am afraid I have to say I have no f***ing sympathy at all.......because there's no reason for it, in the grand scheme of life 10 or 20 miles an hour may save someone a couple of minutes in their journey but it may also be the thing that wipes out some poor innocent sod. There's an easy way out, slow the f**k down. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lid 194 Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 I agree that speed is factor in accidents, but I disagree with the relentless use of speed traps all over the shop and useless bloody variable speed limits all over the motorways.Especially in modern car, it is all too easy to slip a good few mph over the limit without even trying for all sorts of reasons. Forever watching out for the traps and multiple limit signs (M25 the other day - 50, then 60, then 50, then 60 and no real traffic) is actually more dangerous than slipping over the limit now and then. Good luck in your case, Wales1234 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
