If you do receive anything in the post and ask for advice regarding a live case, please try to tell us what actually happened without making things up. Your thread title, posted in the live cases forum before it was merged with the "Have I been caught?" thread was "2 speeding tickets within 2 days" - whereas you have not received any speeding tickets, regardless of how loosely you define the term.

We don't care what motoring faux pas you committed or are accused of committing that resulted in you seeking our advice, but we do care whether you show abject contempt for us by lying to us.

So sorry - new here!

Hi all,

I was a member of pepipoo (no longer around) and i’m glad we have another community! I’ll have to build my stats back up. In the meanwhile i need some help for all of you:

I got caught doing 47 in a 40 by a speed gun with the officer sitting inside a car. They didn’t bother stopping me so I’m expecting a letter. My speed gps is estimated 45/46mph. Would they proceed with a ticket or apply the 10% plus 2mph. It’s within the london country Newham. Thank you for all of your help in advance  :)

Enforcement in a 40 limit normally begins at 46mph.

Being accused of removing the note after a small crash - England
« Reply #168 on: March 05, 2025, 06:49:06 pm »
Crosspost from reddit:

Hello,

I live in a tower block with a small car park where I have a designated spot. When parking the other day I accidentally tapped the car next to our spot. I decided to move the car onto the road so I could better asses the damages on both cars as it is a bit of an awkward spot. Someone on the balcony above who witnessed the crash shouted down, accusing me of trying to leave without leaving details so my husband waited with the car whilst I moved our car and got some note paper.
I left a note with our details and didn't think much more of it. Both cars have been parked next to each other for a couple of days.

Today I find a note on our car accusing me of removing the note. They heavily insinuate that the same neighbour from the above balcony saw me come down later that day and take the note off the car. They are saying they are reporting the incident to the police as a hit and run. Obviously, I did not go and remove the note but I don't know how I could prove that as there is no CCTV, and this other person is saying they have a witness. I am freaking out a little as I don't want to be convicted of a crime. I have texted the person who left the note but have not had a response. What is likely to happen here if they have reported this to the police?

Thanks
