Just got pulled 45 in a 30. First offence after 14 years of abusing cars and road. I am laughing all the way to the cheque book, I still feel as if I am beating the odds. The only down side is that it was in the wifes Fiat Tipo 8 years old and ready for the graveyard, wife asked if I was travelling DOWN HILL cheecky cow. Hopefully next fine in another 14 years (2016).

Remember things come in threes...

I got my second ticket 6 months after the first one. Haven't been got since, and thats now 14 years ago - maybe I'm due for another soon

Indeed, I got done for 58 in a 50 zone earlier this year, wrote off my Scooby..... so now I'm waiting for number 3.

Hence I haven't bought another car yet and am getting Mrs Smifff to do alot of the driving at the moment (scary).

I hope bad things come in threes. Two fixed penalties and a written off car are enough for me Got a parking ticket today though. Bastards
