stopped sep 1st 2002. no camera in the cop car, and only 1 copper, no witnesses or complaints , for speeding 71 in a 50.

i filled a complait against the copper who ripped the keys out my evo, turned it off hot, scratched the door and threw me in the back of the volvo.

2 weeks later geta NIP for speeding AND dangerous driving.

after they ajourn it 3 times , get to court in july 7th 2003, (10 months later) i get 12 months ban with extended retest, 500 fine, 320 costs and 5 points. had to pay my solicitor nearly 2.7 K. and i'm still waiting to re take my test as there is a 3 month delay on exteneded retsets at the moment - 50 quid for reapply for provisional, 20 quid for throey, 98 quid for test, plus lessons at 20 quid a throw.


so, grand total (so far ) and im still not back on the road for what should have been a 3 points and 60 quid job, they've cost me.....Ł3700.

after makin me wait nearly a year then banning me for ayear .

and my complait against the copper "sorry sir, insufficient evidence to form a conviction".

so the moral of the story..... lick plods ringpiece , dont put in a complaint,

btw, prior to that. no points, 8 years NCD, clean licence.

i'd have been better off saying i'd nicked the car , had no insurance and was pissed. - FOOOKERS!!!

3 points and Ł60 fine for speeding on the A90, got caught by a bike copper sitting who was hiding behind a sign

Also just got 5 points and a Ł230 fine for 55 in a 30 with the rst, it took them over a year and 8 court apperances to settle it, the fuckers have now lost my photocard licence as well but the two coppers who caught me at the time let me away with going through a garage forecourt which sits besides a set of trafficlights when the they were at red, was doing about 70 at the time as well and was in the same week

Been done for both Dangerous and careless driving plus been let off with loads of other shit so cant complain really

Clean at the moment though I'm still waiting to see if I get one like my mate did coming back from TRAX on the A5.

I got away scott free with a list of offenses on the A1m about 8 years ago. That calmed me down so much

(was a country road, national speed limit into a 30mph zone) not outside a school!

2nd ban 114mph on a motorway sliproad, luckily was slowing down to turn off and still in the motorway section, 100yrds in front was down to 30mph

both a good few years ago so have come and gone off my licence. now all i've got is a red light jumping 3 points

a mate of mine totted up in excess of 100 points in a year!! lol
he was very young and naive!!

i've got 9 points, one was for an 'l' plate falling off the back of my moped, lc20

and the other was having someone on the back and trying to shoot down an alley and the old bill blocking me off!! lc20,

got 3 for 1 'L' plate and 6 for peron on the back, but shit loadsa let-offs for speeding and wheelying so cant really be arsey bout it all.

but i can tel ya now, it gives great satisfaction to make a copper look like a Cl.lNT in court i tell thee!!

copper tried saying i was wheelying down a high street that was all camera'd up, reaking the speed limit, coming up to a bend and they were going the opposite way from me, had to do a 3 point turn in the road and still never lost site of me??


TWATS!! got off with that one too!!
