Hope your nan feels better son.  :happy2:

What is that first charge driving over a verge. do they mean crossing the chevrons or something like exiting a slip road late.  :confused:

JPC:
thanks for the comments guys.

regarding the verge thing TC, its a long story. i was joining a motorway and came on side with a traffic cop. literally side by side. id spotted him before so was obviously driving perfectly. he did seem very odd, he kept speeding up and slowing down, i let him go on. he caught up to an audi about half a mile in front. he sped up to at least 90 without any light on, ILLEGAL! then over the next mile he continued to intimidate this guy in the audi. me and steph said it was awful what he was doing, i really couldnt believe it.

then another mile up the road, i passed the cop after having pulled up the audi over!

i was that disgusted by the cop, i even phoned tom and told him what i saw. and told me to watch out. case closed kinda i thought. glad he didnt pull me for once etc etc.

then on wednesday, i got the NIP!! what a grade A C@CK!!!

Dude, feel for you.

It's plod like this that gets all the others a bad name. I have a friend who's been a motorway cop for 20 years now. He's a really nice guy and told me that in most instances, a little talking to is normally more than enough. He said the look of dread in peoples eyes when they see the blue lights go on behind them, is worth 10 times more than a ticket for something trivial. He says it's only a last resort for him to issue a ticket or summons, except if something is viewed as seriously dangerous driving.

I've been driving for nearly 30 years and got my first points on my license last year. Got caught by a mobile van on a bridge above the M8 in Strilingshire, Scotland. The insult is, I didn't actually think I was speeding at the time. They did me for 77mph on a bloody motorway, early evening, perfect visibility and very light traffic. What's dangeous about that ? :mad:

He's probably very jealous that someone of your age has a nicer motor than him !

Greeners:
Unlucky Jay! Glad your gran is ok as thats the most important thing  :happy2:

What did you get for your number plate? Fine? How much? Any points?
