Default Bugger!

Got snapped by a mobile camera last night on the way to club meet. Tucked away in the bushes- couldnt see it until it was too late...
Anyway i could have been doing between 80 and 85 in a 60 and it was in the middle of the countyside on a mile long straight!

What size reaming can i expect?
Never been caught in 15 years driving so i dont know what to expect.

If you were doing 85 indicated it's probably only 77 to 78 actual. In a 60 limit I would expect 3 points and £60 fine, especially if it was the middle of nowhere. I guess it depends if they thought it was dangerous driving or not...

just wait for the NIP and see what they will offer. IF it's the 3 points and £60 then I would take it.

a nervous 2 weeks ahead..

Hope so...
I dont think they could do me for dangerous driving. For one, i wasnt, and two, there was nobody around... No vehicle, no police, nothing. Just one of those mobile gatsos on a tripod in the bushes (When i went back to have a look!)

perhaps you should have loaded the camera in your car and taken it with you for safe keeping
the things people leave lying around these days lol

Cant say it didnt cross my mind!!

But then i remembered the guy that detroyed a gatso that had just snapped him, but the data was recorded in an external box underground. He got a bit more tha 3 points lol...

Funny thing was i nearly dinged a rim on the way home, bored out of my head at 60mph with the cruise on. Comatose zombie.
