First offence?

Did they deal with it at the road, or are you going to court?

Can you say you were trying to get away from the paparazzi?

100 mph plus?

Yikes! Bad news, good luck. You will most definitely want to take a look over at the forums and articles on PePiPoo: Helping the motorist to get justice

I got done at 125mph on the M6. Just got a 2 week ban and £500 fine. Get a lawyer. One of the 3 judges (the woman

) wanted to give me 6 points which would have (added to my 6) meant a 2 year ban. So get a lawyer to plead your livelyhood etc...

How much did the legal work cost?

Advice I got from a lawyer for a friend who got done (I have never been caught - I mean - never broken the speed limit) was to admit it, say you appreciate the severity of the crime and are sorry, that you need the car for work and then shut up.

Although getting a lawyer would probably be a better bet!

That was silly. On the bright side, better to get caught than kill yourself/someone else.

While back but no more than £800. Not really a lot for them to do. I admitted the 125.
