You are, it would appear, always right. "Smug of Suffolk" here has just been snapped doing 54mph in a 40mph zone - I have been driving 35 years without an incident of any sort. I was keeping up with traffic, still have no idea where the camera was, am now "Shocked of Suffolk" with 3 penalty points and £60 lighter.

Many thanks for your honesty. I just wonder how long the 8 out of 9 people who live here and who were born in this country will stand for this.
