People may remember me as jaigtir, one of the old school owners from when the forum was first set up.
Not been here for a long time, but the gtir is finally nearing completion after soooo long, and am looking forward getting back into it. Only one slight problem
Was going up the motorway a couple of days back and got stuck behind a van doing about 50mph in the fast lane refusing to move over even though the slow lane was clear.. He eventually moved over and i shock my head as i went past while he stuck two fingers up at me. As i pulled in front of him, he decided to sit on my bumper, so naturally i sped up to pull away from him. About 3-4 minutes later i see a police car in my rear view mirror, and got pulled over. He then said they had clocked me doing an average speed over 1.527 miles of 106.7 miles p/hour in 51.52secs using one of the devices in thier volvo that measures time over two distance points. I cant believe i didnt see them, as i check my mirror very regularly and was shocked we i saw them behind me. They said they clocked me from when i took over the van, didnt see him tailgating me though!!!!.
I had a look at the equipment but how do i know it was for my car???? I believe there was no photographic evidence, because when i asked him to show me the evidence, that is all he showed me.
Wasnt interested in my story about the van, just said i would recieve a court summons in acouple of months and more than likely lose my licence.
In terms of paperwork all he gave me was rectification form which has my details and licence details.I thought this is the form they give you if you have any defects with your car?? Then under the VDF Defects section all he has written is 106.7mph, 1.527 miles, 51.52 secs.
Is this the proper form he should had given me?
I have had a completly clean licence for 8 years now and am wondering is there any way i could get out of this. Basically if i lose my licence i lose my job and will prob have the sell the car.
. I was in my audi cabriolet.
