Hello there, I need help & advice on this one and anything else will also be appreciated.
tl;dr I was pulled over by a met police officer at 30/12/2017 for doing 110 mph on A20 while I was doing 68, I have video evidence. Here is the frontal dash footage with the speedo reading from my HUD (not very clear tho), I intentionally included 10 mins more driving in the video, before I meet the police officer to show you that I was not speeding at all. Please read the description or comment on the video to skip to the relevant part, but here is a copy of that, "Police officers sitting at the side of the road in the bushes, video location 10:35, google map location https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.3939669,0...3312!8i6656 stopped me at 14:50 allegate me doing 110 MPH! 16:20 He later told me that “It is easy to not notice your speed in such powerful car.”" Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKySmZeT9NA Here are some bulletin point that I would like to highlight, 1, I was following the traffic (even fallen behind it) before I meet the police car hiding behind bushes. 2, I was overtaken by another car when I pass them. 3, I handed it my license when pulled over, I did not take any penalty point or fine on the spot, the police office provides verbal NIP to me but states that letter should arrive within 14 days. 4, I signed the reporting ticket to show my acknowledgement but not admittance, he did not give any back to me. 5, I think his device might be set to kmph as 110 kmph was matching the speeding I was doing 68mph as you can see from the video. 6, I have one passenger(my wife) with me on the car, she knows what it feels like to driving 110mph as we have been to the autobahn. Not here is what I think I might do: I will wait for any letter to arrive, and appeal anything to me, go to court with my wife and my video, ask for any calibration record of the device and show my video. However here are my doubt and questions, 1, Was the evidence suffice? I was not speeding either intentionally or unintentionally. 2, I need to change my address 2 times in the coming 6 months, is noticing DVLA enough? I am worrying missing any letter sent to me. 3, Is there anything I can do to ask for justice? Without my dashcam I could left stranged and hand in thousands of pounds in fine and 6 points for something I never committed. This post has been edited by go2ready: Sat, 6 Jan 2018 - 16:21 |
