As above, I was being caught doing 91 in a 70 mph limit.

How much points do you reckon I will get?

Really gutted at the moment

Probally 4 points and a fine is more than likely.

I got caught a few years back doing 70mph in a 40mph section of Dual carriageway. Got 4 points and a £200 fine.

Thanks for the replies, I really hope I don't get 6 as I'll most likely be banned as I have 6 already:(.

Feel like such a twat, such an obvious speed camera aswell. Just completely day dreaming at the time, I pass it all the time.

when they send you a ticket through just pay the fine and take the 3 points.i very much doubt they will give you a summons for that, they only usually give out a summons for 25mph over the limit, double or over 100mph, just be on your best behaviour.when did you get the 6 points ?

Got the six points in the space of 4 months, really has been a daft year for me.

Thanks for the help, I realise how daft i've been. Really cannot go without a car for my work.

Should get 3 points and 60 pound fine.

My understanding is that if you are caught doing double the speed limit its 6 points and whatever fine, and over 100 is a ban for about 2 months or so and a fine.

Hahaha how the hell did he get caught doing 215MPH? I wana know what caught him doing that speed as apparently cameras cant detect that speed according to the test done on top gear.

Pretty sure it was a Laser Gun that caught him ... not sure.

There was a guy recently who drove his SLR McLaren at over 180mph in Switzerland, supposively hes looking in the region of around £650,000 fine. They take into account your job and earnings etc over there lol.

Speeding Swede Faces World Record Fine.

A motorist is facing the world's largest speeding fine after allegedly being clocked doing 180mph on a Swiss motorway.
The 37-year-old Swedish man was caught by a camera on the A12 highway between Bern and Lausanne on Friday.

He was travelling so fast he needed over half a kilometre of road to come to a halt, according to one arresting officer.

The Swede may have to pay up to £650,000 under a formula used in Switzerland that takes into account the driver's salary and how much over the speed limit he or she was.

Other older speed cameras had failed to capture the Swede in his £160,000 Mercedes-Benz because the technology was unable to detect speeds over 125mph (200kph).

A police spokesman added: "We have no record of anyone being caught travelling faster in the country."

In 2001, the 44-year-old Finnish boss of Nokia was issued with what was believed to be the world's heftiest speeding fine.

Anssi Vanjoki had to pay 116,000 euros (£95,400) after he was caught doing 47mph in a 30mph zone in Helsinki while on his Harley Davidson motorbike.

Traffic fines in Finland are determined in a similar way to that in Switzerland, so Mr Vanjoki's large salary at the telecommunications company was taken into account.
