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)
