Got you all beat.....

Stopped 4 weeks ago for doing 99 on a 70mph dual carriageway.... Officer said if I was doing 95 I would have received a fixed penalty and 3 points... But because of the 99 I have been reported to the fiscal. Still waiting for any sort of paperwork through the mail. And yes, I know I was stupid. Previously..

Know someone who was caught doing 138 on the M74...yes 138 on the M74, he was charged with dangerous driving and could have faced a stretch in HMP but he managed to have his licence revoked for 20 months and a £1000 fine...

I did my speed course, and it was quite interesting, especially as we drivers like to think we know the answers to the questions, more like nobody does! I was 37 in a 30. hee hee, thinking it was 40, but one guy was 32 in a 30 lots of discussion on it, and NO none of this 10% and 2. its 30 dead! however some cops are human, but if I was giving them the finger at 32, then, I would expect a noob response.

get this, I was caught in Surrey. there are 130 cameras in Surrey, and only six at one time are 'rolling' ie active. about a third of the London 700 or so ones are active at any time. so the guy informs us.
as for the original post if you see the smaller 30 signs, it means you missed the first large one. ie 2ft or 1 ft sizes.

did you get caught monkeyjones?
it looks in the picture, like a workman drinking his last mouthful of tea!

As we are on speed cameras be very careful with the motorway mounted gantry ones.
Driving up the M1 all the gantrys set at 60 for miles and miles so cruise set and attention wandering a bit (for no reason I might add traffic light and in daylight)
when just one was set to 50! and you can guess which one had the cameras on. A licence to print money
Lucky I just noticed it as i reached it
's Mine was a blue one!

The first photo may not have been Police. My wife is part of a Community Speed Watch in our village, lots of people use it as a rat-run and its a very narrow high street, so it is difficult to even reach 30mph, anyway, when they are out they have to wear hi-vis jackets and have a radar gun, however, if someone is exceeding the speed limit they have no authority to issue a speeding ticket, anyone exceeding the limit has the registration and speed send to the local police station for their action.
So if there were no obvious Police signs / cars then it could well have been a Community Speed Watch in action.

I just 'borrow' the wife's hairdryer and wear a hi-viz vest then go outside for a couple of hours entertainment

And from previous:
I didn't know a FFRR went 138mph. Was it a 5L Super?

It can be worse, my dear British friend drives a Jag and was on his way from his French house to the UK for his sons wedding. He got caught on the tollway doing 195 km. where you are limited to 130. They took his drivers license there and then and there he stood in the middle of nowhere. He told them he was on his way to his sons wedding and they offered him a policeman as "chauffeur" to bring him to the first police station in the UK. That would cost him hotel, food and drinks and 500euro a day for this driver. Arrived in the UK he had to fill out all kind of paperwork concerning the withdrawal of his drivers license. His son picked him up there. He had to go through a 3 day course and the whole story costed him over 2500 pounds fine included. France is a great country....but don't get caught here. There are camera's everywhere and they have an organization in Rennes that works its way through 65000 speedtickets etc a day. So drive carefully in France the state loves this income.

^^ Defiantly a lot more Speed cameras appearing in France and very sensitive
Passing one in a village near me at the speed limit I was just pointing at the camera as my wife stresses about them and getting flashed when flash! WTF looked at speedo It was spot on the limit.
Luckily never heard anything. However it appears that if there is a camera there is usually an active warning sign before it that flashes on showing you your speed.
Re the 130 limit I try to stick to it but seem to get passed by every car so everybody in France must have points! Mine was a blue one!

Just one of the reasons I try to avoid going to France but unfortunately unless you want to use ferries and take massive detours you have to drive through it to get to other more friendly countries There is a difference between knowing your sh!t and knowing you're sh!t

Many users of toll roads are driving a car registered to a company. The company is under no obligation to give the name of the driver. So they do not loose points. The drivers usually pay the company their speed tickets. Next to that, france seems to be the country in europe with the highest rate of drivers without license and!!! without insurance.
Anyway I still have 11 points, driving vintage cars often, gives you another perception of speed.

Well we normally always travel via Belgium & Germany to get to Switzerland/Austria/Italy so its only a few miles on the French Autoroute before Belgium. And there is no speeding ticket agreement with UK in Germany
