You haven't have you...

Has the bike been registered to you yet?

I would take it to a field, torch it, and claim it was was stolen Laughing

Scotty, if you got flashed from a camera in front of you then it wouldn't have got ure number plate (no plate on the front). It's only from behind you'll get done for.

If someone was speeding on a bike and had no license then i'd say they deserve whatever's coming.

55mph on a scoot... they probably haven't sent you a fine because they think the camera is playing up. Laughing

sorry i did get flashed from behind.
And i can understand about the camera playing up, i mean i wouldnt belive a scoot was doing that. i know the git flashed its not to hard to see it. (was at night).

I never knew about the 14 day thing. although it did make me slow down for speed cameras the few days after.

AFAIK if you don't have a licence you can get a 6 month Ban. And unless the bike's reported stolen at the time u were flashed it's ur responsibility.

im not too sure i was speeding too much Smile i think they allow 10% error so 66MPH is ok in a 60MPH area. However my speedo isnt working so im just guessing at how fast i was going. I didnt see the thing flash but it was day time. I was asking out of curiousity really and like i said it is very hyperthetical Very Happy

thanks for all your replies

The 14 day rule isn't as plain as it seems. Aparently, the police can bring it back to court if you were going more than a certain percentage over the speed limit, they have 6 months to do this.

Hi

They have 6 months after pulling you up personally. The 14 day rule (that they must have posted it that it would normally be expected to arrive within 14 days) applies to gatso shit boxes

All the best

What Keith says is correct. If there is no notice of prossecution in 14 days then they can't do you. I know this is correct because my old man is a magistrate so I asked him Very Happy
