If this happens it is the most annoying ticket ...

On the M25, sitting in a major jam and getting late for my tunnel crossing to France this afternoon. Was parked next to the HADECS camera for about 15 minutes not moving at all so was having a good look at it. My camera detector had warned me about it about 15 minutes earlier when I was almost there.

Suddenly, there was some traffic movement and without thinking I just pulled away hard. Except that I was at that stage in the "capture" area I would guess of the unit and I was doing over 50 in those few seconds in a 40 limit :cry:

Prayng that the unit was not on but I could not believe that I had forgotten about it. :headbang: No flash seen (no idea if they always flash).
 
I think you have 14 days to be notified of these things? :?
Hopefully you weren't over the threshold...

They always flash if they are triggered. 50 with 40 on the board should be fine. I frequently go from the m23 to the m4 using the m25 and treat forty on the board as a 50, 50 on the board as a 60 etc and I've never heard anything.

It frustrates me that they always seem to leave the boards on way after the congestion has cleared. Bloody stupid things that make the traffic worse in my opinion
 
Fingers crossed then. You will hopefully forget it in a few days and here nothing more about it. Thought I had been got three times on my trip up North last year. All with around 80 on the clock. Happily nothing ever arrived in the post. :D
 
Accelerating hard in heavy traffic like a chav at your advancing years....I'd remove your licence forthwith... :evil:
 
I really hope you get a ticket PVR. I really do. You deserve to. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that you should burn in hell too for your outrageous disregard, contempt and blatant disregard for the highway code.... :lol: :evil:

Not the Clipper, otherwise I would have been able to get to 20 mph :lol:

It was the X5, so performance that you boys can only dream off :poke:

Chris - I am working a few miles away from you, so might have to get near you to ensure you catch fire as well (you car will self combust anyway :evil: )

Worst part was that the traffic stopped literally within a few hundred yards again to stationary level. So literally the only bit of movement was right in front of the camera :cry:

And I missed the train, and the next train had a broken down coach in it - great day yesterday ....

Driving without due care and attention if you ask me. :poke:
Speeding (3 pts), driving while wearing clogs (6 pts), in possession of a dutch accent (3 pts) = 12 pts - gotta be a ban really, hasn't it...?
 
I'm amazed at the venom being directed at such a stalwart and thoroughly nice forum member :whistle: :whistle: :rofl:

Oh, and do you need some petrol to burn Chris's car ??

Some dreams came true then :lol:

I will call you as an expert engine witness in my defence case then. :D
