Not that long ago you were fairly safe if you stayed below 85 but as you say, cameras all over now.

Fines tend to be applied at speed limit + 10% + 2mph.

Lincolnshire has no such tolerance, the speed limit is exactly that, 1mph over and you get a ticket. My other half last year got 32mph ticket in a 30, did a speed awareness course. Not good for public perception of the police.

Does your vision not blur at 80mph? |

Stick to the speed limit, better late than dead.

North Wales operates a zero tolerance on speeding.

I tend to stick to 75 on the motorway as i don't need to concentrate on where plod is hiding! That said, it depends how empty the motorway is? And which car I'm driving too... |
