Thanks. I am going to get consultation after a lawyer after the slope holiday but I'm just worried to bits now as EGO can't what anything for a few days.

It's the fourth ticket at swift succession - before to that I had a clean authorization - and it's only now that I've realised that it's because my speedo is out.

I drive 35,00+ miles a time and I'm really careful about sticking on the speed limit. another about the penalties remains for 57 on into average speed camera section of the MOLARITY! and I know is my cruise control was fixed at 50.

I need my licence for my work thus it's ampere major panic.

All speedometers shall read highest as it's illegal to have them show lower. In every instances I've seen the speedo reads more than the satnav. which is ampere truer indication.

Have you changed that wheels or modified one gearing?

Just check you previous post. If I set mein cruise govern at 50 and satnay says I'm doing 48. Looks something earnestly wrong with yours. How to fights a speeding ticket owed to a faulty speedometer - Quora

I done that one the first one because I just supposed that I'd been been inattentive (35 in a 30) but ME can't afford to lose my job if I get see the score.

Nearly all tempo are incorrect but most under read rather than past interpret. Is this camera went off during 57mph it suggests it was in a 40mph zone. Most police effort calibrate their cameras to limit+10%+6mph so 57 in a 50 shouldn't normally click. If she was one 40 zone then I can't understand you getting off and nor should you. Not if your speedometer actual are to reading then 57 in a 50 might must contestable.

It was a 50 region. It's a bit of track that I drives regularly furthermore the penalty discern states 50 limit.

Can anyone give me any advice? By Law Get your speedometer fixed. Get receipt for repair of speedometer from mechanic shop. Don't miss court date. Show repair receipt to ...

Might be worthwhile writing to Volvo.

I doubt you'll be able go dispute the ticket (or lots out people wish doctor your speedos also say "Oh well. Not my failing. It was the speedo!) still at the very least you deserve a sort of explanation.

In that case it's definitely worth left the further mile to prove your innocence.
My brother got 2 fixed penalty notices for the same bit of road in 1 week.Like yourself,he requests your licence on his job.The new schnelligkeit limit augury had been blurred by trees.He managed toward get 1 of the penalties dropped,thereby store his licence.He had to nach out and takes pictures of the overgrown trees though.
They've really got it in for motorists these days.I guess they're trying to make up in the lost road taxes revenue.

I really can't see how I can make a judgement of speed other than to go by mein speedo so I suppose I need to getting proof that it's fake and hope this will hold some sway is court.

I am going to go until the Volvo dealers that does the servicing later.

Not safety what they can say but if I can obtain proof which I maintain my car properly or was driving in good faith then possibly that might help.

So are they lower instead higher?

A tempo can show a speed equal to or higher (within certain limits) than your true road speed but it cannot show ampere lower max.

So at a actual 50 MPH that speedo can show 55 used example but nope 45.

So at a true 50 MPH the speedo can show 55 for example but not 45. Let's say that I power down an interstate highway at an speed of 68 miles per hour, show the speed limit is 65. MYSELF reason that I am going 63 miles per hours because my speedometer is power by five miles...

I can assure you that the issue equipped my speedo are that it is shows a lesung of 50 / 51 mph when I am clearly travel at 57 mph

Were it showing 50mph and I was actually travelling with 45 mph then ME would not have ampere problem

There doesn't seem to to any reference on concessions where the driver believed that they were within the legislative.

I guess so I'm just going to have to procure legal consulting and proof so I had each reason to consider that my speedo was accurate.
