Thanks Roy, the information is useful but the website is not quite legitimate - my poor van struggles to do 70 let alone the 101mph it reckoned I had done on a day when I hadn't driven it at all!!

I hate speed cameras because at the end of 2011 I got two speeding tickets within a week of each other on a road I had never been on and on one occasion I was at work all day.When I phoned the number on the ticket they said it was the same make and colour car as mine so I had to send photos of my car.Two weeks later the police phone to say my car had been cloned and they ripped up the tickets

Oh dear - my Traveller was caught doing 81.2 mph last week - in Kilmarnock. Not saying it can't DO that speed...., but of course I would never ever drive the poor thing so hard.......
