[Closed] Speeding Ticket - what would you do?

LHS · 2010-05-25T11:42:50Z

Right, well my philosophy on speeding tickets is if you were speeding and get caught, stop whinging and pay the fine. End of. Its happened to me before, i knew i was speeding when i saw the van and when i got the ticket i thought, oh well, my fault. That was until last friday. My commute to work involves a stretch of dual-carriageway where there is a cameravan parked at least once a week. Hence why i never go above the speed limit at any point and chuckle to myself at least once a week when i see people go speeding past only for a camera van to be around the corner. On friday the camera van was where it usually is and i glanced down at the speedo to do a quick check and i was doing about 65mph-68mph (70 speed limit). Got a ticket yesterday for said day at said time indicating i was doing 83mph!!! Now, do i contest this as I am convinced i wasn't going over the speed limit, let alone 83mph!!! If i contest do i have to go to court? Do they ever make mistakes?

Thats the trouble, guilty until proven innocent. Well done for sticking to your guns!
