Just wondering if anyone here has had (or heard of) one of these new style speeding tickets and fines based on income?
Also, what's the scoop on minor infringements lower than the 10%+2 ACPO guidelines - has that changed? I can see that there'd be a lot of money to be made (in the short term...
Not sure if this was already mentioned, but it is certainly worth knowing

For all sorts of reasons he is tempted to pay fine, take points. Anybody have experience of likely reaction to points from...

Have You Been Caught Speeding?
This is an interesting case reported by Fleet News.
A driver was accused of driving his vehicle at 40 mph in a 30mph limit having had his vehicle's speed captured by an LTI 20:20 Ultralyte 1000 Speed Measuring Device operated by a mobile patrol. These devices are Home Office Approved and are...

Do you get 2 tickets?.6 points?..a towing awareness...

How long before this reaches the UK? LINK.

Motorists would do well to slow down." says the Zergignac commander.
Not using a seat belt
Drink driving
Drug driving
Using a mobile phone at the wheel
Do any of the above and you are a pariah and quite rightly so (though to a lesser degree with seat belts).
All have been campaigned against, with varying degrees of success.
I'm convinced speeding is receiving...
