I know you work for an insurer, but my policy docs (for the bike at least) state that I must notify my insurer of any claim or points, etc as soon as (if) I get any. Probably best to check your individual policy carefully.

Thats just not fair IMO 80 on a motorway is very tight you either did'nt smile enough or person that gave you the ticket was having a bad day or like me you gave them the finger for harrasing you by tailgating you! not realising the car was full of coppers ooopppps

did 135 with a pair of coppers overtaking then dropping behind and overtaking on an empty motorway some years back. After about 30 miles of it, I pulled off and they waved me goodbye.

Seriously Britain's motorways should be unlimited unless there is an incident when speed should then be enforced. and I don't mean leaving matrix signs saying 50 when there is nothing there

Yeah, that's a very good point, wouldn't want anyone getting into trouble!
