Got a NIP in the post

[Hodge]

Unbelievable! I got a NIP for supposedly doing 35 in a 30 and I know it's incorrect so I have challenged it. I knew the 'cash cows' were out on the road so pootled along under the speed limit in the car. 25 minutes earlier I had been on that road giving my daughter a driving lesson so I knew where they were. To be fair I never speed in built up areas. My missus was in the car with me and we were actually discussing the 'cash cows' being on the roadside at this time of year so I was purposely watching my speed, as was she, so we both know I was sitting on 30.

I have requested the video/photographic evidence and asked to see the callibration certificates for the equipment. I suspect they will ignore my request and pretend they never got it. There is no way I was speeding and they shouldn't be allowed to get away with it.

Bit harsh as they allow for 10% meaning you are only 2 mph over

Lying bastards got me in 1991 with Vascar. 91.98mph in a 70 zone. Was absolutely convinced I was not speeding, but they said yes you were, and we are plod so you are guilty.
There was a bloke on another bike infront of me, doing the same speed, didnt pull him though
Saw the same bloke about 3 months later on the same bike. Turns out it was a Kawasaki z200, they do 72 mph flat out with a tail wind, off a cliff.
Too late by then...........
Fucking fucking fucking fucking shit fucking turd eating pair of cunts. Dont stop for plod anymore. Fuck em

+1 from me, got an appeal going on atm for illegaly parking in a loading bay in my work van while I was dropping off a document at gone midnight even though there is only a restriction between 07.00 to 19.00....Pricks. Then, driving towards Bank underground station the other night I noticed the police behind me at the traffic lights. I pulled away on green and held my speed at 30 mph, I noticed that they were holding back then sped up to close the gap. At the next set of traffic lights they pulled along side me and said I was speeding at 40 mph. When I said I wasn't they got verbally aggressive and threatened to take me to court if I wanted to argue. If my van had been fitted with a tracker it would have given me great pleasure to embarress them both in court but, both their words against mine, didn't fancy my chances so decided to wipe my mouth...leaves a bad taste I can tell ya.

Few years ago my mate was stopped for 50 in a 30 limit. He had just pulled out of a petrol station and was stopped 50 meters later.
He contested this saying it was impossible for him to be doing that speed in such a short distance and provided eye witnesses. He also challenged the calibration of the equipment as this was in the days when traffic cars calibrated equipment using "markers" at the side of the motorway and a stopwatch giving an element of human error.
Judge found in favour of the Police advising that there had not been an earthquake in Scotland strong enough to move the road markers 
Result..........12 month ban!
