Member Contributer Dutchy Posted April 15, 2015 Author Member Contributer Share Posted April 15, 2015 39 over after correction 10 euro per km + 6 euro admin The tunnel near Oudenrijn was empty, so I let her rip. I am counting my blessings as I was still moving away from him. But he clocked off after the minimum 16 seconds of measuring. 40 over means the Justice department wants it say, 50 an instant ban. OK, so DMR front fork kit fund took a hit. Counting my blessings though, I was on my way home from a memorial meeting for someone from my old scout troop. 58, cancer, death...

SEBSPEED Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 He was doing 39 over and it wasn't the autobahn... so he was probably close to double the posted speed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Polarbear Posted April 16, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted April 16, 2015 Sorry to hear Léon. I know how frustrating it is to get tickets. I get my share. On the plus side you're still alive, unscathed, and it's only facking money. I'll have a couple glasses of red wine thinking about you rising and the tickets I am not getting cause I'm not riding.

Member Contributer Dutchy Posted April 16, 2015 Author Member Contributer Share Posted April 16, 2015 It was motorway alright, where 100 (62mph) is posted.The tunnel is about a mile long. It is not a "proper" tunnel; it is a euro 238million "cover" over a stretch of motorway for "environmental" reasons. Read that now they can build houses closer to the motorway and comply with EU regulation on building close to roads.... But the cop did me a favour by not attempting to establish my real speed. As he drove off (he had led me of the motorway) in his unmarked car, a police panda car stopped on the other side, to check if I was ok.They asked if the car that they saw driving off had been giving me grief (road rage).Told them yes, but that it was due... :-)Fair cop.PS:As it was at night, he walked over to me (yes he can do so safely here...) showed his id, saw the Honda logo and said "red, that is the SP1 no? Nice Akrapovic, great sound...." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Dutchy Posted April 28, 2015 Author Member Contributer Share Posted April 28, 2015 And the good news is that the speeding fine ended up Eur 346, not Eur 396......... The measured speed was 140, minus 5 correction makes 35 over :-) Eur 50 saving is a good bottle of single malt! Wahey!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllWeather Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 You would be walking home with your bike impounded here in QLD Australia for 40 km/h over the limit with a court appearance as well 40 K's over the limit here is an instant side of the road loss of licence and they have no sense of humour having recently dropped the speeding tolerance to just a couple of km/h over the limit = a fine My riding buddy just got done for 64km/h in a 60 zone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Dutchy Posted April 30, 2015 Author Member Contributer Share Posted April 30, 2015 Over here, 50 over is an instant ban. They then have 10 days to consider what to do next, looking at one's speed sheet. That more than 30 over of mine will be on record for a few years.... They also introduced new digital speed cameras... Bert was asked yesterday to add 38 bucks to the state's coffers. And hey who is that in the bottom left corner??? Fingers crossed, keeping an eye on my mailbox... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was doing 15k over the limit and the camera was facing towards me. The flash frightened the crap out of me. By the time the paperwork caught up with me at my sisters place near Newcastle i was safely back in the UK. Never paid the fine so dare not go back to Aus, they'd probably put me in nick. Anyway Australia's too expensive now compared to when i was there 8 years ago. Ps don't they give you double points if they nick you on a Sunday?
