Destined never to have a clean driving licence :( :( :(

Caught by camera van last weekend 90 mph :( :( :(

Wasn't even driving fast - just a quick bit of throttle to get past some lane hogging prat.

Damn! I feel your pain. Where did the camera van get you - (somewhere in Scotland?). A heads-up would be useful (I’m due to collect my new GTS tomorrow and wouldn’t want to get off to a bad start).

Sorry to hear this, ScotMac. :(

However, "not even driving fast" and getting a ticket for doing 90mph seem incompatible. ;)

And as car speedos overstate the speed, I guess that your speedo said that you were doing maybe 95... :ugeek:

Most of us have done it though, including me. Tough luck.

Speeding in Scotland !!!!

You will be publically hung drawn and quarted.

I thought that there were 50mph speed limits and cameras everywhere outside towns.

You could be lucky to retain your license, 90 in England and its a coin toss to be banned or not.
