Radar Guns
Just a quick question, do traffic cops stood on a slip road with a gun take pics of your car or will they stop you there and then? i was in the outside lane of the m11. doing about 80ish. Dont bother lecturing me about speeding either!
|
Think you'll be ok fella ! There not that bothered about the 80mph boy's it's the 90+ they're after.
|
hopefully be alright then. its just the wait for two weeks i dont like!
|
Yer, if it's white caps with a gun they would normaly pull you, or their mates in the next layby would anyway...don't think you need worry, as has been said on a M road 80's not that fast, they normaly won't bother with doing the paper work for anything under 90;)
|
I had a copper in a layby get me with a speed gun, nobody stopped me but I received the fine in the post 3-4 weeks later, and had points put on my driving license automatically,
Teach me to hurry up when I'm late for a race meet, Hope you get away wiv it, |
If you were doing 80-82ish on your clock then true speed would be about 75mph and some forces give you 10%+2mph so you should be ok. Dont know how many people notice when you have a sat nav on which is calibrated to millionths of a second, the speed on that is slower than your car reading. In mine 70mph on the sat nav is about 75 on my clock.

If doing 80 on a nice clear day with not a lot of people about then you`d prob be ok. But if its chucking it down then they`d ave you right away for being a complete muppet. Its more about driving conditions than overall speed. I`ve overtaken police on motorways before whilst doing 80 with no probs, but its usually lovely and dry at the time.

Dont most forces give you the option of the points and a fine, or the fine and a day at the naughty boys driving school now.
