They've sent the picture and you really couldn't identify a driver from it. Unfortunately, my wife is not a fighter and is terrified of going to court, she'd probably start blubbing. So short of sending both mine and my father-in-laws licenses to get my wife off the hook, then I'm not sure where to ...

I think I've understood what you're trying to say.

Obviously, none of us want to bring the forum into disrepute.

Thanks,

Odin, That was copied verbatim. Would the loophole be the statement about "not legally obliged to provide photographic evidence unless a court hearing has been arranged"? After all how can they arrange a hearing until the know who they are prosecuting? I think we've just passed the first m...

I've got three in 10 days, so I'm fighting it all the way. Sorry, but IMHO it's just lazy policing, I thought the Role of the police was to deter crime, not just detect it. If I had been pulled over rather than getting a letter some time after the event, my driving would have improved at the time no...

Have you checked the wheels and tyres are the right size? If someone has changed them so the rolling radius is larger then it will under read on the speedo as it is calculated on the gearbox output shaft I think.

I've received 3 in 10 days, 2 are for stationary cameras that I drive past on a daily basis and one is a mobile camera in an area that I know to be a hotspot. Since receiving these I've been out on the dual carriageway and checked my speedo against a GPS, it appears to be under-reading by 8mph. The ...
