Good luck.

Did you sort a decent brief?

Are you going guilty or not guilty?

I am going there expecting to get at least a 3 month ban and a hefty fine!

So i guess anything less than that to me will be a bonus... anything more and i think i will just sit in a corner for several hours and cry!

Well, fingers crossed they are as leniant on you as they can be in light of the letter and the fact you rolled over and plead guitly, although I must admit I still think you are nuts for not even trying to argue it.

I agree, it a shocking state of affairs when people take so much notice of a journalists spin of events when blatantly it would have been the business reasons that carried more weight anyway but the article isnt written like that.

Ah, fair enough, well if you know that you are going to be found guilty anyway, then sounds like you have done the right thing.

All just down to pleading and hoping now then.

fingers crossed for you.

Which you are pleading guilty too? I would say you were driving at very high speed. How fast anyway, were you / alledgedly travelling at?

When i was stopped the officer told me i reached 125mph, when my summons came through it was for 110 - 115mph.

Personally, as far as i am concerned, yes i was speeding, but nowhere near to what has been stated!

Its a nonsense that the figures are all over the place, I dont see how they can take his numbers seriously when they keep changing!

well when he stated i was doing up to 125mph it was only verbal... so, no written proof of what he thought i was doing!

on his witness statement it claims 110-115mph

and on the court summons it just states 'in excess of the 70mph speed limit'

so god only knows!

Well, fingers crossed they ignore the 100+ stuff as it varies and just give you a generic "speeding" type fine of a few hundred quid and some points.

If asked, you should state your speed at "between 90 and 95mph" I reckon.
