hotrodholty Posted October 13, 2008 Report Posted October 13, 2008 left gs escort this morning, nailing it down the by-pass towards runcorn bridge, ooh! whats that bright yellow thing in the bushes, oh shit its a copper pointing his gun right at me, flagging me onto the hard shoulder 64 in a 40, i explained that i thought the road, which is a dual carrage way with no house's or even pavment anywhere near it was national speed limit. he said it should be a court appearance, 6 points and a fine, but because i thought the road was national speed limit (and i think he was more interested in the car) he would give me the normal £60 fine and 3 points. i dont know wether i should be happy that he seemed to go easy on me or piissed off that iv got 3 points was the copper right or just making himself look like a nice copper
Stu_B Posted October 13, 2008 Report Posted October 13, 2008 You got away pretty lightly mate I've been done for 54 in a 30 (Rural area no houses.... no speedo as well ) and 90 in a 60! Both court appearances & big fines, 6 points, then 5 points

Both court appearances & big fines, 6 points, then 5 points good to know mate, nice that there are still some reasonable coppers out there that ar'nt just trying to get there conviction figures up ill count myself lucky then. i was tempted to ask if i could have my pic taken of him pulling me over with my hands on the roof, thought it would make a good sig pic, but i bottled it at that last minuit
Daggle Posted October 13, 2008 Report Posted October 13, 2008 You got away with it really mate, should have been a court appearance and possibly 4 to 6 points, i would have thought
