Amount of times ive been on the M62 coming off there but I jsut cant picture where the camera is, but if its where I think it is, I certainly have done over 50mph there :s well I did last week eep!
Merseyside Speed Camera Location
.
Nearest Town/village: Liverpool
Road Name: M62
Direction of Camera: Westbound
Speed Limit: 50mph
Speed Camera Details: Gatso speed camera installed on the M62 westbound just before the end of the motorway. Speed camera is on nearside after junction 5 on slip road and before hump backed bridge near the Rocket where speed limit drops from 70mph to 40mph On approach there is a long sloping up hill section and drivers can easily be taken unawares by the blind summit of the bridge and if asleep the reduction of limit to 40mph.

Haha, silly sausage. Everyone knows, 90-80-slam the brakes on- 50 for the cam -back up to 70 for the bend, then calm down.
Unlucky dude.

Its towards the end by Queens Drive/Edge Lane where the flyover is.
I wonder how long it will be before every speeding prosecution also bills you for the extra CO2 you produced by doing the extra speed.
And whether they will at some point bill you for the letter, envelope and the CO2 produced in delivering it to your door.

He-he great feeling isn't it.
What I find criminal is they wont show you any evidence that you have committed a crime until you appear in court. How can you be charged without being showed the evidence against you. That is my single biggest hate about the whole speed ticket situation. So much for freedom and democracy.
What they offering 3points £60 or a court appearance?

If you only have recieved that today, then it's 23 days since the date of offence. Does this mean it's null and void?!
It has to be sent within 14 working days, it could have been sent on the 14th day and the BH postal shenanigans could have held it up until today.
No it was received on time, but I was going to contest it and goto court like AcidHell2 said, but, honestley what is the point - I was had good and proper for not paying attention to what I was doing and it's a bit of a knocker having to now drive everywhere at the speed limit and have increased insurance costs but ah well, live and learn.

Nope - has to be posted within 14 days.
Tut tut, getting caught by a fixed Gatso is very poor form!
Enjoy the points
The should rename them to 'fail' points
the letter should read
"Dear Numpty
GOTCHA! doing 46 in a 40, enjoy you failure points.
-PoPo"
unlucky man
