I preferred version 1! -
Due to an IT cockup 18 years ago, I have two different driving licences under two different driver IDs with two different addresses. One is almost up to full points now.

Once upon a time I got stopped for looking too young to drive that kind of car.
Another time got stopped for slowing down because I knew there was a zebra crossing over the crest of the hill and it was school emptying time, so there would be children crossing, which they were.Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

I got the dreaded double flash at the end of Sheffield Parkway overtaking a nutter who couldn't decide what lane to be in. So I zipped past cut back in front and prayed the second flash didn't get me.
It did, 47mph in a 40.....
They let me off tho, dunno why, maybe the second flash wasn't good enough for court....
