    Unhappy got caught speeding

    Bugg*r....

    Just had a call from the wife. It went as follows..........

    "ive taken the liberty of opening a letter addressed to you from Northumbria Police.....Youve been photographed doing 59mph in a 50 restriction on the A184"

    Its most likely a fair cop, i probably was, but i cant remember seeing any police or mobile cameras etc. The road is also a dual carriageway with no exits/sliproads for a mile with high banking each side so its easy to find yourself at 70mph.

    On the stretch of road theres a Gatso but everyone knows its there and always slows down to 50 when going past, so i dont think i was seen there. It must have been a mobile thingy.

    Oh no, bad luck m8. Sounds like a mobile thingy. Any 'uncertainty' as to who was driving at the time?

    Has that blemished a clean license then - or just added to it?!

    well i have got 3 points and an MS90 from when she went through a Gatso a few years back. I said i couldntbe certain if it was me or her driving. Next thing i know i get a court summons and end up with a £100 fine and 3 points. Trouble is, insurance companies dont seem to like my 'failure to supply driver information' conviction.
    Shes got a clean license so i think we'll assume she was driving this time.
