    Even allowing for the 10% over that your speedo shows that would get you an automatic ban methinks.

    Indeed it would have done had I been caught.

    I did it on an empty cuntry lane at about 1am. I reckon I could have squeezed another couple mph out of it had I not run out of road.

    That's the problem, having enough road.

    If you ever do it on a motorway the problem is other people getting out of the road. When you go above a certain speed you actually become invisible.

    Ja, though i did once manage over 130 on the A1 once, not in the mondeo, like, twas a volvo s60.

    Had to hit the brakes fookin' hard tho' because there was a hidden speed camera.

    You think you slowed down enough from over 130 after seeing a hidden camera?

    I think not.

    My speedo thought so, and so did the lack of fine in the post.

    No, I'm pretty certain the speedo is in mph.

    How on earth could you make a claim of knowing whether or not I slowed enough in time to not get caught by the camera?

    Are you familiar with my reaction times, the stopping distance of that exact car, the condition of that part of the A1 and most importantly, the distance I was away from the camera when I saw it?

    That's like 40mph, not a problem on an A road.
