Are Red Lights Optional?

[BarnBrian]

Everyone, but everyone who drives a car/ rides a motorbike occasionally and completely unintentionally breaks the speed limit from time to time. I've had my license for 35 years and have been busted just the once!

I'm like you Gunge, I never intended to do 120 on my motorbike,oooops:whistle:

'Bad boys driving awareness course' lol. I've been on one of those. It was either go to court and take the punishment and points on license / plead guilty, pay the fine and get points on license / go on the course for �£70ish and get no points on license. I chose the latter but boy I can think of better ways to spend 4 hours.

I got one of those for going the wrong way up a badly marked slip road at Goole Services! :whistle:

A day in Hull and a ton lighter in the wallet.

Going slightly over the speed limit is more subjective than jumping a red - with the red you really have no excuse at all, but to know your speed exactly does require that you take your eyes off the road! :lol:

TBH the red light jumpers are often the least worrying drivers my cameras catch! But the M1/M62 junction abounds with them!

I have done the best part of 1,000,000 miles in the last 40 years. 307,000 on 2 wheels. A few points are inevitable but my last were in 1999.
