I have not time for the pigs there is no second chances. Especially when they accuse you of speeding because the car was making alot of noise when coming up the road. But i was not speeding officer the C.V. joints need doing on the car.
and they wonder why people don't like them.

Sweet Jesus. 100,000 sperm, and you were the strongest?

There is a 7 day legislative grace for your licence label. There is not one for a WOF.

Also, you DON"T have 7 days to produce your licence, the offence (like the WOF/Rego one) is complete on the day - you MUST produce your licence without delay, and you MUST display a current WOF and Reg (as long as the rego is not expired by more than 7 days)

And who books in a WOF these days? You'll need pretty good proof of the booking for the WOF ticket to be pulled.

You're wrong

you can moan all u like about the rules ( i dont agree with 'em ) but moaning on here is just pathetic.. play teh game.

its not a complaint about the rules just the dick that got it wrong, read the post..... and 100mph on the motorway back there is ok as long as your not a cock about it, over 100 and its the court and looking at a ban...and your right about my hyo its never hitting 100mph!!

Sort of, but not really. It's only a defense to the infringement if you've, prior to the expiry of the last license, made an application to relicense AND the license had not been received.

im english myself; i'd be nervously happy about passing a coppa at 80 on the motorway but i know i'd be nicked at 90 and banned at 100.

you'd also get nicked for not pulling over into a free left lane, undertaking and doing anything other than concentrating on the road ahead.

strangely over here the laws aren't upheld in order of public safety; idiocy is common place and accepted ( red light runners, no stopping at stop signs, zebra/public crossings)

But you have to realise... WHEN IN ROME.. DO AS TEH ROMANS DO and if thats what the coppers target then play there game! If you get caught your dafter than a sand jockie caught in a sand storm with his pants down ! huh Smoky!

your right if your speeding and caught then face up to it and take the fine/points but as i stated i was caught at 65 in a 70 zone, plod got it wrong and didnt have the decency to say sorry !

and the speed rules back home, im talking from experience as a military driver...maybe they just didnt stop me..?

all though most of my miles are M11 miles and speed isnt such an issue there ?

Driving a Challenger 2 down the M11 would have any copper turning a blind eye !

( I did 4 yrs and drove most of the armys fleet, including teaching ruperts how to drive 8t Bedfords and the 14t DROPS, off road )

Put up or shut up.

Put up what ? you're the one claiming to know it all, go and find out for our self, I'll accept your apology once you realise you're wrong
I'm just saying "you're wrong" - because I know you are
I could try to explain it all to you but you came on all knowing and rubbishing me - so you obviously don't want to know, and wouldn't believe me either
After all I'm a speeding criminal who should just shut up and fuck off - so a couple of you flat earth believers think

Your wrong
