Krzys Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I thought it was any sort of van/LGV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 b****rs ay. These things happen though we all know the risks off driving fast. Speaking off entrapment there's an unmarked impreza sti round here. And unmarked audi rs somethings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burbleboy Posted February 14, 2014 Author Share Posted February 14, 2014 just remember you were doing nearly 30 mph over the limit, shame you couldn't ask them about a speed awareness courseIt was 19mph over the limit mate! 89 in a 70!Its my own fault and accept its easy to go over the limit if your not really paying attention and also driving a 130bhp van!!

burbleboy Posted February 14, 2014 Author Share Posted February 14, 2014 I hate using quote functions on my phone!In reply to Daves post...its unfair that the cops chase poor guys like me but the law is the law and i knew i was over! I think that restrictions outwith normal speed limits are for vehicles with a tacho fitted or a certain weight/height. I was driving a wee van without a tacho so normal speed limit applies!

philgor Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 i drive a transit as part of my job, so i made sure that i got up to date with the limit's, a good one is the transit connect, the SWB can gross out at 2ton, the LWB can gross out up to 2.6 ton, so, it can only legally do, 60 on duel's and motorway's, and 50 on single's...
