Driver at our place was caught speeding in his car, 83mph in a 70 zone.
Total cost £205 plus 3 points, I don't know if its because he drives for a living but does seem quite steep. They also said if it had been 86mph then it would of been 6 points
That's why the fine was astronomical, a copper once told me never go not guilty or try and argue the toss with a motoring offence, you'll end up worse off
Up to 90 (may be 95) is simple FPN ticket for 70mph limit offences. Court can impose between 3 and 6 as soon as it gets to them irrespective of it being 75 or 99mph.

Agreed. You, as the driver are scum. The police are angels and can do no wrong. Seen a few people get stiffed good and proper trying to rightfully defend a case. Chap on here got screwed accused of a phone offence, despite letters from phone provider etc etc sayinging phone was not in use he was still found guilty of it.
The law is a fucking arse, unless you are a prommer scummy cunt then it seems you get away with next to no punishment at all.
I just got done with a mobile speed camera in a works hire car, 40 in a 30, sent back as guilty, I can either pay £75.00 and sit the cause or £100.00 and 3 points. Seems odd!
Depends on the council to what they charge for a course it's good that it's cheaper but my god they bore the crap out of you and of you even touch your phone your off the course and get done anyway
