Whats the likely impact of 3pts on your license? I'm 75% certain I got zapped by a digital speed camera on Mottram Moor yesterday - I think I was doing 35mph in a 30mph stretch...Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

You should be OK with 35. I went through a mobile trap in Stockport a few weeks ago at over 40 in a 30, never heard anything.

Its those bl**din' Tameside green ones on the A57 between Mottram and Glossop - its my own fault, I was hassling a stupid woman in a Nissan Micra in the outside lane who wouldn't pull over - I know where the camera is, even though its in a bush (and green) - I saw the sign 30 yards past it flash up "Slow Down"... ...we'll see Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

One of the fixed cameras did me for 34 in a 30 limit the year before last.

I thought that there had to be a margin of 10% minimum. So you were very unlucky, they must have been short of cash or something.
As for green cameras, hidden in a tree, I would have thought that is against the rules. Don't they have to painted brightly and not hidden to be acceptable? You want to talk to Beckhams lawyer, he can get you let off
