  • I've Been bad, very bad

    I left work today early, as there was nothing happening. so I decided to take a trip to the next town to mine....


    I was crusing along (wish id used cruise control) no traffic on the road, nice dry sunny day, but didnt realise my speed was creeping up


    It was then I looked in the mirror Blue flashing lights


    He clocked me with a "Pro laser III" at 101mph


    He couldnt issue me with a fine or points cause its over 30mph over the limit (70mph) so Ive now gotta go to court, could face loosing licence, fine and points on my licence. Also have to pay for a solicitor.


    So this all is going to cost me alot of money, and could end inme loosing my licence.


    So Ive learned one thing, watch my speed...

          lol there is no cruise control on a crotch rocket man.

          I'm suprised that he didn't just give you a ticket with points. Like say you were going 29 mph over. That way you get the ticket and points, but keep your license. Weak man.

              Man ive got a snooper, reasonably top of the range one... but he got me with a laser gun, he was parked up on a bridge/slipway, so he was wellout of sight, got me from behind/above....


              The snooper has 360 degree vision, but with laser it is only transmitted when police pull trigger, so when laser is detected by radar / laser detector its too late...


              Like you say, need laser / radar jammer


              ... but shurly these are illegal?
              Costly? difficult to fit?


              Anyone got a jammer?
              Anyone got link to a decent web site for jammers etc?

                He said cause im over 30mph over a speed limit then he cant give a fixed penalty...

                Also because its in 3 figures (101mph) it instantly has to go to court

                29mph over i would have had 4 points and 150 pound fine.

                But now it could get nasty! Ban, high fine, 6 points...

                  any cop I know would have knocked it down 2 mph to 29 over so you'd at least keep your liscense. He could've written down that he clocked you at 99 if he waned to.

                        man that sucks, not to mention it will raise your insurance premium
                        if it gets nasty in court ask for the calibration papers on that laser gun, maybe they are out of date and then they have nothing

                        just a thought

                            Look on the bright side. Sounds like your transmission is working OK

                            Maybe tell the judge that you spent 6 months trying to get your trans fixed and you had to try it out on the open road.
