    .... Do you have on your drivers license?

    I have 3, got a speeding ticket last March, I was having a bad time of things at the time, and what annoyed me was that it was placed near a disused factory at 6am on a Saturday morning when no-one is around

    Mind I went past some signals at 32 MPH last week and noticed one of teh cameras flashed hope It's alright.

    It wasn't a speed one though just for traffic lights.

    You'll be alright. They allow 10% I believe so anything over 33mph then you're busted I think...

    6 points, it was 9 up until a few months ago. All for speeding and only a mile or so over the limit, but I understand its done for a reason. Its the £60 a throw fine that miffed me more than the points I think

    I haven't had any points yet (touch wood) which I am a little surprised about. I once was going about 36/37 in a 30mph zone and got caught by a man and a camera but for some strange reason I never got a ticket.

    None. Not many policemen with camera's about just the regular big yellow/grey things so speeding isn't a problem.

    I'm suprised in 2 year's that i haven't had any.

    3 pts but they have long since expired. Would be banned here by now due to the number of speeding fines I've had but they don't seem to give you points for it. :)
