Been Caught
 

speeding lately and not sure if you'll get a ticket?

thats ACE!! Maybe I can use that against the garage that has had my last car for 3 months, trying not to fix it....

Apparently I was going 34 in a 30 zone in Newquay on finals day when I was in Miami :lol:

I got done for real this week - 59 in a 50 ( in my van on a normal 60 limit road for cars ). Clear weather, dry roads, no houses within 2 miles, very little traffic around - 10.30AM on a weekday.

Merry Xmas from plod

:lol:

i did and it just shows my face :p

hmmm, remember you typed this post should you ever get done for 69 in a 60 limit.
If your telling me that you`ve never been above 10mph over a speed limit on a deserted national speed limit road then you are either lying, you like tow a caravan everywhere you go, or you are a bed wetting Liberal :lol:

I don`t speed in built up areas, if i did then i deserved the £60 fine.

Never mind ....... :cry:

so if you were on a road with a 60 limit, why did they do you for doing 59?

Assuming that your asking a genuine question, i hold my hands in the air, i was speeding. It is a national speed limit, 60 for cars 50 for vans. I was doing 59 MPH. Shouldnt of been, but hey, i was. Just thought it was a little harsh taking into consideration the road condions. I saw the camera van and thought little of it as i assumed that they would be looking for people doing 75/80 odd thats all.

Safety Scamera Partnership more likely, but I agree with your assessment of them.

:) - im all for cameras outside schools, in built up areas, accident blackspots etc. This was a van parked on a 0.5 mile straight with fields either side. Middle of bloody nowhere !

so what sort of van is it? how come u can only legally do 50 in it? yup im serious

Short wheelbase Transit van mate - the limit for them is 50 in any national speed limit zone. I knew this, should of slowed to 50 but didnt think that plod would be pedantic enough for 9mph just cos im in a van. Had i of been doing 70mph + then i wouldn't of bothered moaning. I`ll just pay it as unlikely to win in court and cba with the stress.

so how do the spec vans at 50? where is the regs and rules?

have a read Mark :)

hmmm http://www.dft.gov.uk/pgr/roadsafety...vanspeedlimits

not know that thank god mine looks like a people carrier!!

Mark, take a look at this.

What do you drive? Looks are unimportant, it is whether it is a "Car derived van" or a "Van derived car" that decides your max speed.

citroen dispatch
passed several smokies and mobile cams doing 60 on a national 60 road.

Me too in the past - hence my initial cnuts at Xmas reaction !!

if its transit size or bigger then your done but if its pug expert or smaller then you can do car speeds confusing aint it.


edit : my van is a low top swb transit conect and I actualy asked a traffic cop at a service station what the limits were for that van and he informed me that they were the same as a car, been passed a few scamera vans + cops since at car speeds with no troubles ( I did take the traffic cops badge no just in case though ;) )

I'm probably the only 26yo that drives an SRi and NEVER knowingly breaks the speed limit. I've had too many close calls in the past so its been Mr speed limit for about 3 years but I never knew there was a lower speed limit for vans untill now, its something i've never heard mentioned before and I bet there's alot of people that don't know. Thanks for the heads up.

wasn't saying i don't speed or haven't broken the speed limit... and I didn't complain when i was caught doing 89 in a 60 limit...:blush: (open dual carriageway at 11pm at night, just me and the police there... unfortunately!)

just a bit of banter... don't worry! :p:D

No, i wouldn't of complained if i got done for 30mph over the limit either :p :D

I had a bit of a winge when I got done for 112.7 in a 60...:cry:

Ouch :lol: I bet they almost threw the key away for that mate !

luckily my flux capacitor was turned off, so I didn't end up in 1955.... :D

It was in the days before the safety nazis decided that speeding was a worse crime than child rape so I think I got off pretty lightly.
£180 fine (at £10/week:woot:) and a 28 day ban.
