I thought I did well to abide by the limits round your way, the speed recognition signs on the entrance to every village are quite intimidating.

Way I see it mate, if you hit them at 90 they fly over the car. Hit them at 30 and they smash the bonnet and windscreen too. Maybe even damage the roof 
Only problem is I keep needing new front bumpers  Which reminds me I need to drop my car at lemass for my latest one fitting.

I got the offer to do the course when I was clocked @ 85 in a 70 limit, but that was Essex

That sounds like bullshit IMO - I highly doubt the cop would have said that to the guy, nobody is above the law!

not at all i got away with two bald tyres befor that was only because i used to chat to the coppers sometimes when i saw them and showed them respect. so he gave me 3 days to change them and all sweet. if he had of done me i would of lost my lincence. police are not as bad and people thing they just want a bit of repspect for the job they do cause its not easy.
