Will depend on the circumstances but 60 in a 30 is usually a ban.

that was a loophole dan, but i think they done something about it. not sure though.

that intended prosecution form is basicially something for u to sign and kind of gives them proof it was u.

i got done recently. (65 in a 50)
i appealed it saying i dunno who was driving. and they sent me pictures of my car. but u couldnt see who was driving.

but they worded the letter basicially saying if i dont tell them whos driving then the registed owner of the vehicle would have to take the penalty.

so i signed the form and the wrote back saying "we now have evidence that u was driving............. 30 point Ł60 fine"

what pissed me off is that it was me that gave them the proof

There is a big case going to the human rights court in Belgium in january caz a woman would not say who driving therefore she was giving up her "right to remain silent" . If she wins her case apparently gatso's will all have to come down and the camera vans will be useless too .

Anyone else see this in MCN ??

You'll probably get 6 points and a hefty fine or a short ban and a fine.

ky time me thinks

doing 30 over the limits normally resluts in a ban in most cases, but there's a whole world of diference between doing a ton on the motorway and doing 60 in a 30
double the limit means they are going to be looking at throwing the book at you
minum ban is somethng like 1 month, but if the prosecution make you into a deviant motorist type you might be looking at spending a few nights away
