Once you name yourself as the driver, they will either offer you a speed awareness course or a fixed penalty of 3 points and £100

Should be a speed awareness course provided you have not done a similar one for an offence within the last 3 years.

It is worth, if you don't want to just keel over as BaggieBoy and The Rookie have suggested, asking the council for a copy of the Traffic Management Order which creates the speed limit for the roadworks. If you contact them they will normally email you a copy.
On a road like the A14 it wouldn't be impossible for them to get reference points or distances wrong. Assuming this is average speed then a shortened speed limit can make a difference to your overall speed. |
