Hi,

I was driving on a wide road yesterday which is extremely wide and has no road markings in the middle, only cylce lanes on the sides. The speed limit for this road is only 30mph, I foolishly decided to overtake the car in front of me and then the car in front again straight after reaching 60mph. I then noticed a police mobile camera van and slowed down instantly. It is a pretty straight road so I made sure there were no oncoming traffic nor people around before doing so but I admit this was extremely foolish of me to do so.

I have a clean license of over 8 years and have completed a speed awareness course 2 years ago for doing I believe 36 in a 30mph.

Would this likely be a speeding fine, careless driving or dangerous driving? I was not at any point close to crashing. I have spoken to some motoring solicitors and they have even told me they speed and overtake on this road but my speeding was very excessive. I have checked my dash cam to double check no cars were oncoming and it was no where near a crash at any point.

I'm hoping just the speeding fine which I assume will have a ban, since there is no markings and no one was around and I only sped up for the overtakes will I be okay?

Any help is much appreciated.
