Got done tonight doing 40mph in a 30 limit (down a hill which isn't easy in a 2 litre) god damn it !!
Annoying thing was i was standing there giving my details and the camera flashed up 45, 50 evern 55 and 60mph people  did nothing to them. Even when i walked off hes speedo was showing 40mph+ and let them go !!
I feel "boy racers" or " car enthusiasts" get done straight away 
I said to him i was actually interested in joining the police force, he said "this won't stop you" i said "IT WILL"
Anyway i got a £60 fine and 3 points and the slip he gave me tho i can't see the 6 points ?!?!?
What do i do about insurance company etc ?? also do i take the normal bits ? moto, insurance, driving liscence ?
Grrrrrrrr
ps - will insurance go up much ?

You only need to declare the points on renewal...
take all relevant docs...

you wont get your license back for about a 3-4 weeks anyway, so untill that point, you don't actually have the points. don't tell them yet.
you'll need to take both parts of license if you have a photocard one, plus insurance and mot. don't think v5 is necesary, but don't quote that.
you leave them your license at the station and they give you a receipt for it.
hard luck for being picked out of the bunch.

do you have to send your license off to get the points put on there? cos i have to send mine off anyway to get the address updated, should i just wait to find out if anything comes of me being flashed today?

Thats because they're not supposed to pull over more than one vehicle at the same time unless a joint offence is being committed, something to do with safety at the side of the road.

i got done for 91mph in a 70mph zone, got 3 points and £60 fine.
insurance went up by 10%, tell em straight away or they can back date it, or u could wait till renewal, then change insurers, and save a bit of cash
