Hi,
Was driving home ans saw a police speed radar and naturally slowed down as you do. I checked my speed and was under 40 but was in a 30.
I was pulled over, i asked if i was going to fast and was told i was doing 54! My jaw dropped a bit as i knew it wasnt possible. Bet they hear that one all the time.
I politely questioned how far away was i caught to which he responded 200yards, i said although i fully admitted going to fast hand on heart it wasnt that fast. He looked at the radar and said actually your right, its wrong ( taken from wrong distance therefore incorrect) and told me to be on my way but to mind my speed.
The question is, he made no suggestion of a penalty/summons and didnt take any details from me. Although must of had my reg number. Any ideas if i can be penalised etc considering the conversation?
Dont flame me, i dont normally top the speed limit and am apologetic. But, im going through a hard time as my husband of 15 years gave me a 4 word christmas present on christmas morning and im devestated. Thats a whole different story but hasnt clouded what happened.
