3~6 points and £60 fine.

Maybe more if they decide that you were being dangerous.

They need to have photo / video evidence. Otherwise, if you recieve a letter, choose the go to court option and ask for evidence.... They need evidence, they cant stand in court and say, erm he was doing about 80 or 85 or something.......

If they do have evidence, expect either 3 points and a £60 fine, or if you're unlucky, 6 points and a £90-200 fine.

But they can say that they were doing 70 and he overtook them, therefore he was speding. Or they might just hit him with dangerous.

I'm not quite qure of what happened... let me try and understand it So your traveling along a dual carriage way on your bike, with a mates car in front and in front of that is a police car. You overtake your mates car at 80-85mph and then pull back into the nearside lane behind the police car.

You then parked up somewhere, someone told you that it was a cop car in front of you with "police" and massive yellow stripes and stuff all over it and blue lights on top.

How did they take your numberplate? Did a police man speak to you?

Nothing to worry about mate. If they didn't stop you at the time it is doubtfull that you will get 'done'

CID don't really take to do with speeding violations.

Even if the Police do not have formal evidence of the speed you were going they can still prosecute you. However it's unlikely that you'll get an SP in the post, because of the lack of evidence you're more likely to get a court summons. At the court the statement given by a Policeman saying you were exceeding the speed limit will be read out and is good enough for the courts.

I know this because it happened to me, my barrister couldn't do a thing about it. It also happened to another guy when I was there, seem to do them at the same time!

A single police officer holds no sway in a court as it's discrimination, they really need 2 to corroborate.
