    I know someone who was done for 100 on the motorway and received a similar penalty (30 days IIRC)

    It seems that there is a lot of it about if you are a South Yorkshire police officer. Just remember to do it on your own patch.

    It'll be even funnier when the New Lie get kicked out of office and whoever gets in hopefully restarts enquirees in the Doncaster area.

    sounds a bit unfair to me. speeding in 20/30/40 zones is really bad - but I bet doing 90 in a 60 makes very little difference to road saftey.

    I can't knock it.

    Local plod caught me doing 60 to 70 through a 30 zone late at night last week.

    Gave me a bollocking but took no further action.

    Instant ban according to him.

    Thank you plod.
