Hurrah! Finally been to court 5 months after being done for speeding on the A50 and have come home with 6 points, £255 fine including costs and still have the ability to drive! Thank goodness it's all over! Now off to buy a lottery ticket as today is obviously my lucky day!

    You are very lucky! Congratulations on your good news, but don't forget there is no excuse for speeding, it kills people.

    Lecture over ;)

    You are lucky. I just paid my £60 for doing 39 in a 30 zone. It's the first time in my life I've had penalty points... lesson learned :-(
