    3 speeding tickets, v long time ago. Mind you, one was doing about 55 on a motorway during that f* bastard Edward Heath's "fuel saving" speed limit.

        How were you caught? Wasn't that before speed cameras/guns?

          FTFY.

          I've never had points, but paid speeding fines three times. 70 in a 50, 50 in a 40, and one 28 in a 20.

            Was that Switzerland or UK?

            How do the countries compare for speeding fines?

                  Switzerland - hence no points. First one was 120CHF, the rest 40CHF. I.e. £100 and £30 for the rest at today's prices.
