nixy Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Zedrush I like your mum's style! How old is she? Do you like having a mum that's into cars? My son's 20 and we're always fighting over stuff like that because obviously he's a better driver than me, knows more than me etc etc.....

My son's 20 and we're always fighting over stuff like that because obviously he's a better driver than me, knows more than me etc etc..... Lol mum is 60 now, for past 15 years she has only ever had porsches, she loves them, from the 944 all the way up to the 997, she is only 4ft 11 so when she gets in she has a cushion ready on he seat so she can see over the steering wheel lol. The Porsche dealer that she regularly buys of found it so funny so he got a cushion specially made for her with Porsche embedded in it as a gift lol. She is a speed freak on the motorway and drives better than me which aint hard to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinmac Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Just got this by e-mail. Just thought I would share this with you, as you know I work in the speeding fine department in Swindon's Magistrate's Court and in the course of my investigation into "fines, their payment methods, and how points are automatically added against drivers licences" we discovered something very interesting "If You Get a Speeding Fine." This has been tried and it works I tried to send this to everyone I know. I know that for a fact is works so if you ever get in this situation, you have an out. We discovered that this procedure works nationwide. Read it and try it, you have nothing to lose but the points on your license. This is how it works: If you get a speeding ticket or went through a red light or whatever the case may be, and you are going to get points on your licence, then there is a method to ensure that you DO NOT get any points. When you get your fine, send in the cheque to pay for it and if the fine is say, £40, then make the cheque out for £41 or some small amount over the fine. The system will then have to send you back a cheque for the difference, but here is the trick! **DO NOT CASH THE REFUND CHEQUE!!!** Throw it away!! Points are not assessed to your licence until all financial transactions are complete. If you do not cash the cheque, then the transactions are NOT complete. However, the system has gotten its moneyand is happy and will not bother you any more. This information came to our attention from a very reliable computer company that sets up the standard database used by each county's computing system. Good luck and share this with all your friends and other family members as well!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie_350z Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Sounds like tosh to me - any proof? Why don't they just send a cheque / payment for the difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmmackfc Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I've heard that one before...not heard anyone try it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyC Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I've seen that email going round for at very least the last 5yrs. Hopefully it's true though. Zedrush, gutted for you. I'd be well peeved at 36 in a 30, as Nixy said think it's very much force dependent on where their "line" is drawn. Years ago I know that Lancashire you could get away with anything upto 42 in a 30, doubt its the same now though. I'd say worth an appeal, but worst case take the hit mate, if it's your first 3 points then an SP30 shouldn't make any difference to your insurance.
