Caught by a Speed Camera
« on: 10 June 2010, 23:11:18 »

Does anyone know how long it takes to be notified these days having had my photo taken on the A9 on the way home earlier? It's been so long (over 10 years) since my last indiscretion?  :(

I think you can reduce the penalty points if you produce evidence of a carbon offset.  ;) ;D ;D ;D

A Guide to the A9 in Scotland
Perth to Inverness Road is the Gateway to the Scottish Highlands
Sep 16, 2008 Kevin Guthrie

The A9 passes through an array of different landscapes. The road also passes many interesting places and tourist locations, providing a pleasant break from driving.
   


The A9 stretches from Perth to Inverness, winding its way through some of the most spectacular scenery in Scotland. An important link between the Highlands and Lowlands, it is also popular with tourists. Along the road are many places worth stopping at to experience local culture and history.



should be a good photo. ::)

two weeks max.

mobile unit?

It all depends on your speed whether they intend to prosecute you. I've always believed it was 10% +2mph. So if you went through a 30 zone at under 35 you'd be ok. I've never tired it, and never been caught by a speed camers. But without being too rude, how fast do you think you were going?

Can anyone confirm whether the 10% plus 2mph is correct?

My son, eejit that he is, has a photograph of himself and his Rover Kensington (Metro, to the rest of the world knows it....) proudly displaying his recently aquired speeding ticket for 73 mph southbound A9 in a 60 section.

Irony is, muppet is now realising that the kicker is the increased difficulty/premium due for insurance as an under 25 year old.....   :-X   ::)

Ahh. That'll be what I was doing last night. Sitting in a corridor in Berlin airport while my flight failed to generate any CO2  >:(, and then, when I finally arrived at Gatwick I drove home as fast as I could to minimise the time during which my Omega was polluting. :y
