Speed Awareness Course

I'm on one of these in November. 36 in a 30.

£60 + 3 hours or 3 points.

Seemed the right option to choose :p

It cost me £69 + £2.50 for the pleasure of paying by card (which was the only method they offered to pay by!)

It must've done something because i'm a little paranoid now when it comes to cameras and I do find myself checking my speed a lot more, making sure I haven't crept over 30 in a 30 limit etc!
 
I opted to attend one of these courses tomorrow. Hope its not as patronising as everyone says it is.

Caught going 41 in a 30 in Buckinghamshire. Didn't even try blagging my way out of it, the policeman was a complete robot but nice enough about it. Thankfully the course is round my way in Surrey.

Would have been cheaper to take the points, the AA course cost me £95 (inc VAT).

Probably won't be if you take increased insurance costs into account over the next 5 years.
 
I got my letter asking me to confirm my intention to attend on of these when I was caught speeding.When the letter arrived, it said I had to reply within 2 weeks or my paperwork would be forwarded to court. I was out of the country, but when I arrived back and opened it 4 months later they had spelled my name ever so slightly wrong. I was pulled over in September, still not heard anything :D

Yeah I don't have anything to actually add that might help you. Just how I roll.

Zefan.
 
Know someone who got caught doing 37 in 30.

They got asked why they were speeding and if the limits were right.

They answered along the lines off "It was 8PM and you can usually do 40 through there with ease". It was a school route hence the camera.

Just one of the many ways to make money for them imo.
