So I got done for speeding, doing 46mph in a 40mph zone ffs. I had the choice to either pay £100 fine and 3 points on my license or pay £90 for this stupid course. I just want to know if anyone here has done the course and if you have to take a test? I've been awake for 30 odd hours and I'm still at work lol, and gonna be awake for another 20 hours as I got stuff to do, so I'm hoping this course ain't too long. Certainly, can't be asked to be taking tests all day lol. |

I was doing 43mph in a 30mph zone and got let off so i got lucky. I think its just someone showing you what could happen if you're going over the speed limit and accidents |

here you can go like 10 mile/kems over the legal speed limit, i never got pulled over for any reason besides a dumbass who needed to go back to school and should learn proper road safty, anyways i wasnt aware there was a course for this i would just pay the fine instead, also thats kinda stupid you got pulled over for going 6kems/miles over, if i would take a guess id assume its someone talking about the dangers of stupidity behind the wheel |

That cop must of been having a bad day. You can go about 10 over here and you are good sometimes. But then again speeding is speeding.
I would pay the 90 and take the course. And hopefully your insurance want go up if you go that route. @Mikey speeding naughty naughty https://www.thetechgame.com/images/chat/smiles/santatroll.png |

Ive never had to take on of these courses but ive known people who have taken them, and i havent heard any of them saying they had to take a test. But only going 46 in a 40 is not bad at all. Im in the states and i dont think a cop wouldve even pulled me over for that to be honest. I did get a ticket recently doing 67 in a 40 and only got a $100 ticket and 2 points but im going to court to atleast avoid the points. |
