Male parent at school boasting about his speeding....

[boble1]

Hi

I overheard a friend's husband boasting that he did 120 mph in a 50 zone.

He said he saw a flash and if it was a speed camera, he'll get 3 points

He has really made me angry about his dangerous driving but surely going at that speed, he'll get more than just points?

I hope he gets a ban.

Me too. YANBU

Surely when people boast they should have something to boast about? It sounds like he's proud of being a dangerous arsewomble.

He'll be going to court and possibly losing his licence for those speeds.

I imagine he wasn't being truthful anyway, don't give it a minutes thought.

From your post I imagine he always drives like a twat.
I hope he gets banned before he kills someone

Twat

Ah, thank you.

He's a know it all at the best of times.

Boasting and not thinking of the consequences has really angered me.

He could of caused a terrible accident, killed people, lose his job - he needs a car for his job.

I just hope he's never driven like that with his kids in the car

Goodness! I didnt expect so many replies so quickly!

It did cross my mind he may be lying but he is such a big headed twat who thinks he's something special in his sporty car.

The law changed last year and he can be fined up to 175% of his weekly wage plus up to 56 days disqualification or 6 points on his licence.

(If he's telling the truth, of course.)

I think you were right in your OP, he is bragging
Sadly I know a few people who behave like him.

Good luck with whatever you decide to do x

Twat.
IF he’s telling the truth I expect he’ll get more than 3 points. But he probably isn’t telling the truth, I expect he just doesn’t have anything interesting to say. Quite sad really.

Isn't it an instant 12 points if you're caught doing over 100?

Just ignore him. People boasting about breaking the law aren't worth my time.
