Do you know the speed limit on this road sir ?

Post by Lazydonkey » Mon Feb 13, 2006 9:19 am

Bugger :(

43 in a 30

Airbles Road in Motherwell, notorious for speed traps going down the hill but i got nabbed going up.

The irony?

I got my last points (I was on 6) 4 years and 50 weeks ago.

The further irony

I was in Jac's MINI

That'll be a 75 bhp MINI Diesel

Bugger :(
Focus ST estate, i3s and more pushbikes than strictly necessary.

....did i ever tell you about the Evora and VX220 i used to own?

Yup,
I reckon I got busted on the way home from MMC in Dundee. Mobile Speed camera.

Always slow down for the Forfar dip and I noticed a cop car popping out above some hedges! Feckers!

Luckily i only have to declare 3 points now.....Its just annoying cos i was sooooooooooooo looking forward to not having to complete that section on the insurance declaration.

Oh well.

Drove like a granny this morning cursing everyone who "flew" past me at 35mph :oops:

What you on if it comes through G ?

They usually give chase so you're probably ok.
