Always trust a speed camera?
‘I Don’t Drive A Jumbo Jet!’
A cab driver has been accused of speeding in his Vauxhall Cavalier – at 420mph!
Tom Matthews was snapped in his 12-year-old diesel car in a 30mph zone.
He received notice of a £60 fine and three penalty points – and then he saw the recorded speed was 420mph.
“I drive an old Cavalier, not a jumbo jet,” Tom, 34, told The Sun. “According to this I’ve broken the land speed record.”
Tom was clocked as he drove a woman home in Newport, Gwent, at 2.20am.
Mid and South Wales Safety Camera Partnership apologised and blamed “an employee processing error”.
Tom says he will fight the penalty notice if he has to.
“There has been a printing error. If they insist I was going that fast I should be a Grand Prix driver – I’m wasted in taxis,” he said.
Here’s a story – I read his about 3 or so years ago.
A fella was caught on a speed cam and was sent the documents to complete to follow through with the fine. he completes all the details, but doesn’t sign at the bottom or send any money.
This happens another 2 times before he’s brought to court to face legal action.
In the stand he agrees that the form says he has to fill out his details, but his signature isn’t a detail but merely confirmation that the details are correct. By law, he doesn’t have to sign the document. He walked out of court free and no one could believe it took that many years to spot what afterwards seemed like a simple loophole.
Don’t try it anymore guys – because of him you now have to sign the document to.
