Still it could have been worse. I was followed at an average of 85.3 from Heston on the M4 to J13 of the M25 through 40mph, 50mph and obviously 70mph limits!!

A nice copper! He could have sent it to court but decided not to!

8 tickets pending or 8 points?

Damn, best be watching that throttle hand matey, it's a long trek to work by bus!

Edit: Having read it, looks like you're not getting any points to add to the collection so that's gotta be good news!

that's what I was thinking - I'm not sure there's any speeding offence that carries just a fine and no points...

EDIT: ah i see your post now

I thought the £30 white one was for things like number plates/loud cans/dark visors?

Re: Ooops!! Up to 8 now!!

Just to clear it up. Its a yellow ticket. £60 fine and 3 points.

I could have been sent to court which would have undoubtabley mean a hefty fine and a ban.

Just for those who are unclear, I'm not condoning speeding. I ride as I wish. :rolleyes: And I now have 8 points to show for my riding style. Its not a badge of honour, just what has happened.

i was gonna ask that one when i saw the title of you having 8!! does this mean an insurance hike up you think? they must have been in an un-marked car for you not to spot them for so long? how long before your 5 run out?

Re: Ooops!! Up to 8 now!!

Ooops. Now write this line 100 times: "I will not get caught speeding by a police car who followed me for 9 MILES!"

I believe it's been said by someone at sometime somewhere that we, as motorcycle riding people, should check our mirrors every 7 seconds.

Very good of you to take it on the chin. Where was the temporary speed limit? What's the 500 mean under the 85?
:)

P.S. Only 39? (Tee he he)
I wanna know where you live!
