Ok well basically I got pulled over by th po po about an hour ago, they couldnt get my insurance details confirmed, so theyl be in contact with them. Anyway reason I got pulled over was for speeding n overtaking without indicating. They never gave me a producer, what will happen next? They said theyl seize car if im nt insured but I am but what will happen with the speeding? They took my details bt nothing was given to me..
3 points that will help your insurance

if they pursue it yes your way over the 10 percent allowed which is 44 mph.
so is your car insured?? if not they will come and take it under the new laws.
it sounds like they gave you the benefit of the doubt as they couldnt get intouch with the insurance company to check.
but they will.

did they give you any paperwork??
i think under new laws they have to write a report and the outcome is decided by someone else and they let you know the outcome in 21 days.
this happened to me earlier in the year for having an illegal numberplate, 3 weeks later a fine dropped on my mat.

The reason young drivers, like yourself, have higher insurance costs, is because they tend to drive like berks, like you have just admitted to.

yes but mine was a trivial motoring defect, i forget the form.
i had the choice of a £60 fine or go to court.
obviously i paid up and that was the end.
they have your details and no doubt will be in touch, id expect a fine and points or you can waste your time and money going to court i guess.
they didnt fine me on the spot or do anything other than the usual checks, he said something about a report and being in touch, which is what happened.

Well I wasnt driving dangerously or anything, I was atleast 2 cars length away from the car I overtook and I done 50mph at a normal pace, not like I revved the **** outa the car, and they just pullex me over, thats all I was told that I was speeding, I dont drive like a tit or do atupid speeda, im sure evryone even ppl tje age above 30 that are scooby owners break the speed limit, if I was doing like 100mph then thats a diff story but it was sonething major and there was no hazard what so ever.
the speed limit is 40 and you were doing 50 and the police caught you.
you were breaking the law whatever excuse you can come up with and because of this you will no doubt get 3 points and make your insurance even more expensive.
you only have yourself to blame really.
i got fined for illegal spacing on my plate, it sucks but i knew the law and that my plate was illegal so paid up and took it on the chin.

so how exactly are you going to get trade insurance then as you have nothing to do with the motoring trade.
take this anyway you want but ***** like you drive the insurance up for the honest motorists like the rest of us when you have an accident and it turns out your not insured due to lying on policys etc its us who foot the bill.

I thought they had to give you something at the roadside for an offence ?
They must think you have insurance and there is a glitch somewhere otherwise they would simply have siezed the car..........

Everyone has speeded but this guy at least admits it, love it when people get on their high horses and rip into people.
I'd be surprised if at least 90% of drivers on here haven't exceeded the speed limit at some time or another.
As for speeding unless you were caught on camera or the police used some kind of system like vascar to give a speed then I'd be very surprised if they will be able to pursue you for the speeding.
How many officers were in the vehicle pulled you over, was it a panda car or a traffic car?

its being uninsured that im ripping into him for, i work hard to tax and insure my car and expect others to do the same.
imagine if he crashes into your car and damages it and it turns out he is uninsured due to a "trader" policy that doesnt cover him and your left to pick up the bill.
obviously the rozzers are suspicious of the policy too hence the checks

questions here
DID THEY GUN YOU ?
DID THEY FOLLOW YOU FOR MORE THAN 1/4 OF A MILE OVER THE LIMIT
WERE YOU JUST EXCEEDING THE LIMIT TO SAFELY OVERTAKE SLOWER CARS
DID YOU GET PAPERWORK GIVEN TO YOU ON ROADSIDE
DID THEY HAVE VIDEO EVIDENCE IN CAR
sorry for caps lock, if the answer to all these is no apart from the safely overtaking bit forget it nothing will happen

its rubbish - you got no paperwork - they couldnt confirm if you had insurance and they let you go ??? NOT A CHANCE. its to to YOU to prove insurance at the road side, they DO NOT LET you go then come along to you at a later date. no speed gun ? was it RObocop with Lazer eyes ?????? if they cant prove your speed they cant do you. If they had you on camera in the car they HAVE TO SHOW YOU and read you your rights at the road side. there trying to **** you up and it looks like there doing a good job to me !!!!

Its insured, my car is insured under the policy and im a named driver under the policy, they couldnt get through insuramce to confirm as I dont have the policy with me but my boss does, im 100% insured on the vehicle they just found it hard to believe cz of my age and just wanted to make sure its legit
if its insured under your boss trader policy, why are you so concerned about getting it insured in your other thread.
why not stay on your bosses policy for free and why are you changing to your cousins policy??

Insurance companies in my experience aren't bothered what you do as long as you tell the truth.
I wouldn't worry about speeding as they have no proof but if they think you overtook dangerously then they could hit you with driving without due care, careless/wreck less driving or even dangerous driving so expect the worse.
