PaRtZ Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 me neither... 3 points + a £50 fine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatsink Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 Usually £60 and 3 points, "SP70" is the classification of the offence. When I got caught by a police hand held camera accelerating up a hill in a seemingly non residential area, I was doing just over 40 in a 30, and I think for more than 10miles above 30 then it could be 4 points but the police man marked it down as 40mph.I've had 3 offences so far. All unintential and due to me being unaware that it was a 30 area, but that's a whole different matter!Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Papasnap Maher Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 and I think for more than 10miles above 30 then it could be 4 points but the police man marked it down as 40mph.I got done for doing 43 in a 30 - 3 points only and £60 fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petit_pablo Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 Assuming you just get a standard fixed penalty, you will receive 3 points and a £60 fine. Its called an SP50, SP70 doesnt exist as i found out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The enchanted broomstick Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 buy a SNOOPER S5R, next time the piggies are within site, you get warned! simplest answer really. Yes they may be a little expensive but your license is worth preserving and they pick up everything, when you drive past shops with automatic doors this device can even pick them up! Better to be safe then sorry?stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trials Punk Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 I think you'll find that there are plans to soon make camera dectors that do not totally really on GPS illegal. This should be happening quite soon. Unless it already has.I think this is good, I hate camera dectectors. Speed limits are there for a reason, detectors are there for compleate idiots who can't seem to understand the point of having speed limits.However I don't agree with the speed limit for the motorways staying at 70mph? There is hardly any danger there as traffic is split into three lanes.Anyway, no point in buying the dectectors unless you want to waist money.

Danny Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 When we went to the cinema last nite my housemates tom tom with speed camera addon picked up every single camera. It even warned us of all the temporary ones on the M60 around the major roadworks. He said it updates itself everytime he plugs it into the pc.
