Please play nicely. No one wants to listen/read a keyboard warriors rants....
funny how an enquiry re the A5 has turned into a peeing thread , tho having a enlarged prostrate I know all about the urgency problem . yes re my trip to Brixham my daughter has contacted me about our planned stay in Devon , I thought it was in the near future but its not whilst the 28th June, her birthday is on the 29th & she happens to share it with one of my sons .A yesr between both of them. the lad being the elder.I try to train my brain not to tell my bladder it's time to let go five yards from the bogThis can be after a two/three hour journey, the brain is just three or four seconds ahead of itself.
It's strange how your bladder seems to know that you are approaching the loo and the urge to go gets stronger the closer you get.
Is this an age thing?
Pity you never included this information in your first post.
So.....you can't do a speed awareness course because you've done one within the last three years. And the reason you haven't got any points is not because you haven't transgressed before, but because you've already used your get out of jail card.
Sheesh.....whatever happened to the English language?
i never knew about the 3year thing & even if I did it seemed longer than the 3 yrs , Will that do you
Repeated because the quoting function appears to have been well and truly butchered in the previous post.
38 in a 30 speed limit would surely qualify for a speed awareness course, especially being your first speeding offence? You are narked about getting points, so I'm surprised you didn't take up the offer of one, or were you not offered one...?https://www.askthe.police.uk/faq/?id=f4dfaac6-4575-ec11-8943-0022480702b6
Yes I know that....it's the basic info re eligibility for a speed awareness course. Ray mentioned that he was peeved about the points....
Maybe there was some of the criteria that wasn't met that resulted in a course not being offered and the 3 points and the fine. But a basic speeding offence at that quoted speed with no other offences on a first offence and providing the offender accepts the offer, then a speed awareness course ought to be offered. Force policy does vary from region to region but they are all pretty standard at 38mph. Most forces allow infringements of 10% plus 2 mph, which I understand was from the days when speedos weren't accurate as today to allow a percentage for speedo inaccuracy.

i think you missed the point.And what would that solve? A load of people who don't want to do the job would be even less effective.Why is the country being run (🤣🤣). Fkd up would be better I suppose, by all Rich people, surely some people who have more moderate wealth such as maybe a couple of hundred thousand would be far more in touch with what is happening and what is needed by the majority of the population.too right, Billy Connolly did say those that desire to be a mp should be barred for life from becoming one, i agreed back then & i agree now ,
Money may not buy everything possible but buying control of a country shouldn’t be one of them. Just to add Zack is a Tw’a7.
