Brexit Check what you need to do. However, unlike its counterpart, the SpeedCurb is not triggered by radar, but uses sensors embedded in the road surface.
The SpeedCurb does not use film and digitally transfers records to a remote processing centre. These devices are common across the entire UK. Peek: image credit. These devices are semi-permanent systems that are hooked up to strips either laid on the road surface or embedded within it.
The system can cover two lanes and traffic going in both directions. Expect to find them where you live! What are they? These can be permanent or operated from roadside vehicles.
All across the UK. When it comes to your next steps to take, there are three possible outcomes. The best way to avoid all of this? For instance, booking airport parking and an overnight hotel in advance of your trip. And most importantly…stick to the speed limits! Well, this is my first visit to the UK.
Driving all over the country. London to Salisbury to Scotland. Might come back down the East coast next. I am from California, so mph is not uncommon. It takes an actual cop to give a citation in the US. I may be screwed. What I do not understand is the fact that I will be cruising around mph on some roads like today on the M6 and people will be jamming up my butt to pass me on the right…..
They all have traditional reg plates. Are they not afraid of tickets? I think I may have been caught today at 8pm. The design of the road is strange. Too wide apparently to be single lane, yet too narrow to be a dual carrageway, so it goes dual laned at the traffic lights. This encourages drivers to overtake and to overtake at speed in order to get in lane when the road goes back to being single lane a few feet after the lights.
There was a wretched van parked on the grass verge at the top of the hill a few hundred feet away not even visible at night from the junction. Of course this would prevent drivers from attempting to go through that junction at speed. Perhaps I should suggest it to the magistrate when I get my summons? If that road was single carriageway with a fixed camera then no-one would speed there.
Its a disgrace, i travel 60k miles a year, pay the insurance companies for the pleasure and watch idiots undertake, cut people up, tailgate, drivers on phones, reading texts, headphones in their ears, lorry drivers watching TV in their cab. I am not bitter just fed up of being labelled whit the same brush as average drivers doing 10k per year with minimal room for mistake, it needs to be re-addressed and made more appropriate for this day and age..
Not if you are in a quality car thats really quiet ive done it a few times not realising and had to put cruise on to stop my speed creeping up. Your email address will not be published.

You have the right to appeal the fixed penalty notice. If you decide to you have 28 days from the day of issue to do so.
Your case will be referred to court, where in most cases it will be overseen by a magistrate. Bear in mind that in court, the role of the prosecution is simply to prove that you were speeding. If the world starts to blur, it might be time to take your foot of the pedal…. If you were caught doing high speeds on the motorway, or driving way over the limit in built up areas, the police have six months to start court proceedings against you.
This is also true if you already have more than eight points on your licence. Although you can represent yourself in court, it is recommended that you get yourself some legal advice so as to give you the chance of the best possible outcome.
Is there anyway of finding out if you have been caught speeding? Is there a number you can ring or a site to go on where you can tap in your vehicle reg and discover you have been caught.
