Arrived home to find an NIP waiting from Nottingham Police. Jane's car clocked doing 58mph on the M1 whilst the speed limit was reduced to 50mph (roadworks). Bet you can't guess who the driver was  Typical ! After 44 years of a blemish free licence, I finally get dobbed actually doing 12mph less than the national speed limit. I can't even do speeding properly. Rog Nice letter for me arrived this weekend Roger, 37 in a 30 at Kirkby Steven in the lakes whilst en route to visiting my daughter at 8 o’clock Sunday morning!🙄 Looks like an awareness course for me, resulting in a night off work before hand, makes for an expensive mistake ( on top of staying sober the night before for an early start!🤬🤬) 🙄🙄  |

Unless of course you fancy a break, off the leash as it were. Here you go.... www.ndors.org.uk/ |

Snigger! Andy's an 'offender'. It's Kirkby Stephen - and it's not in the Lake District.
Who's next?

Why do you find that funny? I saw it also 'made your day' at weekend when Roger announced he had been caught speeding. You really do come across as a puerile tosser At times!🙄 |

Why do you find that funny? Well, of course I don't find it funny, having met you and seeing that you are a decent bloke, someone that doesn't need this extra stupid nonsense from the Police sending 'offenders' to 're-schooling'. Yep, 'naughty' (as in Rog's case) and I'd say the choice of a £20 fine or a swift kick in the gonads (choice is yours). I get pissed off with seeing wankers driving over the limit every minute of every hour of every day. And in their orange/yellow dayglo jumpsuits because they are 'important workers' - probably 'professionals'. Fuck's sake, if you're so professional, get out of bed half an hour earlier! Everyone's going round pretending they're "in a hurry" - to do what, exactly? Buy a packet of fishfingers? Every morning I'm overtaken by the same cars when I'm on my way to work - why can't they wake up a bit earlier? It can't be a co-incidence that they are late every morning! It's like people on a plane that's just arrived at the gate - they can't wait to unclick their seatbelts - but, hold on! Haven't they just crossed several stretches of sea and land at 500mph? And they're STILL in a hurry? Oh - they have the cure for cancer, yes, now I understand! 30mph zones are so that when you hit a child who has run out from between cars you hit them at 30 max. 37 will kill them, 30 may just give them cross-eyes. So first you have to explain why you were doing 37 and not 30, and Rog was doing 58 instead of 50. You both knew what the limit was. What were you hoping to achieve? |

Since Im not appearing in Court over it, I wasnt aware I had to explain anything to anyone.
But since you ask, I was in fear of my life after a car full of 'slimy Indians' or some other migrant race pulled out behind me and I was concerned for my life after reading your reports on here relating to all their wrongdoings!
I think I had a lucky escape!

I did the course late last year. there really are some people that shouldent drive.
only two of us actually knew what a duel carriage was or the speed limit on one.
we had two of those idiots that argue everything, it made the day really painful.

At my 'Naughty Boy' course, there were two people who stood out, acting like teachers pets, everything they said in the room was full of understanding and we won't do it again stuff.
Smoke break comes up, these two start slagging the whole process off and bragging about how fast they drive.
Next session (I was bored by this time - knew I had been a twat and accepted this was my punishment, but didn't think it included listening to twats), so spoke out and reminded one of the twats what he had said during the smoke break. Was like being back at school! Accusations flying around all over the place, several other people backed my version of events, peace returned after the teacher threatened to fail certain people.
Next smoke break I got to stand in peace and contemplate my twattishness rather than listen to twats.
Was a very enjoyable day!

Just put 'car crashes UK 2018' into YouTube to see a lot of dimwits - including the ones behind their dashcams (and always the motorcyclists who always drive too fast).

I didn't know it was formalised ..... I thought it was just general mayhem  |

Ok ...... but ..... wtf would a child be doing running across the road at 3 am In the decades of driving (mostly motorbikes or band's transits) before the introduction of speed cameras, I never had a speeding ticket, although I was ticked off for it once This is not to say that I was always less than the limit ....... but when I was speeding it was "driving to suit the conditions" and in those days the Old Bill were allowed to use their common sense. |

This is not to say that I was always less than the limit ....... but when I was speeding it was "driving to suit the conditions" and in those days the Old Bill were allowed to use their common sense. There was one occasion that I got off the IOM ferry in Liverpool at midnight and arrived in the centre of Brentwood Essex at 3.15 am. Perfect night driving conditions, bright moonlight, deserted roads, only one vehicle overtook me ...... an MV Augusta that had been on the same ferry. A memorable ride ....... and the roads were not as good then (1976) A nominal 215 miles in just over 3 hours ...... I'll leave you to guess at my speed on the M6/M1 |

just realised .... for a modern driver that might not seem fantastic ..... but it was before the M25 was built so the roads from St Albans to Brentwood were country roads
