Actually, I am very lucky to have got away with it for so long. A number of police officers have had a word with me. But these damm camera people have no discretion. The must delight in catching people and fining rather than educating people in the errors of their ways.

What annoys me about the spot where I was caught is a friends family was badly injured there because somebody saw a static camera, braked and lost control hitting them. I saw the camera van and did not think I was more than a couple of mph over the limit so did not bother to brake etc. To be honest I have been down that hill faster on a pushbike than I was actually traveling that day.
