Better late than dead. Speed limits are set for a reason, just because it is a dual carriageway does not mean it's safe to travel on it at 70mph. I also doubt that the traffic officer ran out in front of your car and also that he was 'hiding' behind a bus.

I hope you get your license revoked and they force you to go to a speed awareness course. I attended one recently after a minor speed limit infringment (35 in a rural 30mph zone) and it has completely change my attitude towards driving, I am now a far safer road-user than before, not just with regards to speed limits but in all aspects of driving. To be honest though you don't seem to be the kind of person who would be mature enough to go along to such an event and actually try to gain from it.

72 in a 40 is a pretty severe break of the law, your gonna get more than 3 points I would imagine.

However, I have experience of Police hiding from oncoming traffic, not that it makes any difference.

I hope you learn your lesson from it, to be honest you may have time to reflect without the use of your licence.

dont count ur chickens, on my way taking a few mates to house party down the borders, top of a hill and half behind a wall with parked cars copper with a Radar gun.

1.1 with 5 folk going up a steep hill, got a run up at about 40mph and was doing about 35 at the top of the hill when i seen the camera.

and again 1 common speed trap they hide behind bushes, these are alway the bikes tho, 1 measures the speed 1 chases.


double the speed limit is an instant ban

My uncle was recently caught doing 79 in a 40 and got 6 points and a £250 fine. I'd expect you to get the same.
