Sorry you got caught, i was recently on the a55 in north wales. I needed to do the research on what would happen 71 in a 50. North Wales follow the agreed guidlines which is 10% + 9mph in which ever max speed zone your in. So sadly in a 60 you would need to be doing below 75mph to qualify for the speed awareness course.
Although the Police attempt to resolve most offences by way of a Fixed Penalty Notice, at excessive speeds, a Court appearance is inevitable. For speeds in excess of 100 mph (or more than 30 miles above the relevant limit) the punishment starts at disqualification as opposed to penalty points. However, the decision is at the discretion of the Court and in certain circumstances, a disqualification can be avoided.
