Hi
First time poster.
I was stopped on the roadside on 29/09 around 21:00 by an officer and issued with a traffic offence notice for 93mph in a 70mph zone.
Nothing has been received in the post yet, with the 14 days being next week (but I am aware the notice can be the nip).
I have three questions:
1 - What is the most likely outcome for this? It’s clear that I’m over the limit, of course. Over 96 is court, but nothing for 91-95. It could go to court or could be a 100 fine. I can’t dispute the speeding; I was over the limit.
2 - This is what is frustrating: the police pulled us over. The one in front of me was right on my bumper. He is the one who would have used the speeding gun on me and caught me at 93. Is this any mitigation as it was not used on my car (I assume not)? The other car then overtook me, and this led to the police following us to stop. The officer did say that he paced over 100mph (no way I was over 100!! The other driver was 115, he said). However, we have both been done for 93mph.
3 - I have just exchanged contracts on first home and will complete it next week, so due to moving in two weeks, what is the best action to take with my licence and also with the police? Do you notify them if I have not had any tickets?
Thanks in advance.
