    Quite a lot of additional information is required and questions have to be answered before confirming
    For starters, it depends on the licence on the day of the recorded offence
    Next, we have the method use for speed detection
    Finally, is the verbal warning and its nature

    29mph over the speed limit is normally dealt with by a simple court case, pleading guilty early will reduce the fine (but not the points)
    For the points, it will depend on the licence on the day of the offence
    However if there are no live points, then expect 4 points (for the 50mph speed limit on a dual carriageway in good driving conditions)

    With respect to the fine (in England) this starts from £115 when pleading guilty at the first court appearance, and a minimum of £155 if pleading not guilty throughout
    This fine would be the equivalent to 15% of your weekly wage (average over the previous 3 months on the court date)

    Any other questions, send me a PM
    I've defended a few people, inclusing myself, in court and have had many cases thrown out
    My personal opinion is "Innocent until proven guilty"
    My most recent case was thrown out as the police vehicle, although following, did not have a calibrated speedometer fitted
    However, when I inspected that police vehicle (when the certificate was made available) the serial numbers did not match

    Got caught doing 92 in a 60 single carrageway

    not a good position to be in with two of ya.

    basically it's referred straight to court.

    i got away with it and my mate got 5 points and 650 fine lol

    did learn my lesson, well slightly anyway

    Presumably the speed was obtained from their car speedo?

    Was the speedo calibrated? - it makes all the difference.

    Sounds to me like, whether you get the result you want or not, you need to change your driving habits, nearly 30mph over the limit is not an error, and for the "previous" handsfree or bluetooth phone kits have been available for years.
