Everton was right. Declaring 0 points is tempting fate. I've just had to nip out for some office supplies and came across one of those kerb rats in a "Safety Van" (You know, the same one that pulled out on me on a roundabout in Clophill when I was on my bike).

As I saw the van I glanced down at my speedo just as I hit the brakes and I was doing 70 in a 60.

Might be OK, my GPS (which I wasn't using at the time) usually clocks the speed in the mid 60's when the car speedo says 70, so I may scrape into the "margin of error", and I was following a big people carrier. so I suppose it depends whether I was hidden by the guy in front, whether I was within the margin of error, how far up the road they point the things and whether they saw me before I saw them because I hit the brakes pretty quick (all in the cause of "safety" you understand)

Had 9 in total , now have 6 and I'm awaiting a possible court summons

1 x 42 in a 30
1 x 36 in a 30
1 x 45 in a 30

Possible court summons for doing 75 in a 40 ( Motorway temp speed limit )

Where I was doing 40+ in the 30 was on the same road about a year apart lol .. It's a nice wide and clear road without any parked cars ... I don't drive like a lunatic unless it's safe to do so
