Something of a discrepancy here......

https://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/4598412.stm

Ronald Klos gets caught at 156mph - gets a £3K fine and a 12 month ban.

Wayne Soman gets caught at 160mph(indicated on his speedo so probably a fair bit less) - gets a year in prison and a 3 year ban.

https://www.police999.com/modules.php?name=News&file=print&sid=208

Neither caused an accident or an injury.

Ronald Klos was in his M3, talking on his mobile phone at the time.

Wayne Soman was on a bike, and wasn't on the phone.

Does this seem right to you?

Sad

Its common sense not to display your speedo or who you are in a vid, but a prision sentence is a piss take Evil or Very Mad Thumbs Down

He was not speeding when stopped but police noticed the camera fixed to the petrol tank and replayed the film.

A year in prison for speeding, thats crazy!

If you mug someone or steal from their house for the first time your guaranteed not to go to prison (unless it was particularly violent).

I heard on the radio that the bloke in the M3 was also DRUNK... Not sure how true this is but it was on radio 1's news report...!
