Enjoying an evening drive out with the other half last night. Always mindful of speed limits nowadays as on 9 points!
Might have 'enjoyed' a couple of roundabouts on the way back and then saw a police car in my rear view. Pulled us over and then gave me a right dressing down for speeding! Just a warning.
A little bit miffed to say the least. Might have been a couple of miles an hour out at most but in no way was I speeding or causing a hazard (combo of 40, 50 and 60 mphs). Also the copper who spoke to me said I had passed a cyclist and could have endangered them. I would swear on my life that I had not passed any cyclists in the last few miles and when I told the mrs this when I got back in the car she wanted to get out and remonstrate with them saying it was tosh and they'd made it up.
First time I've been pulled over in years and simply took the dressing down despite me saying that I wasn't aware that I'd exceeded the limit.
Was it just that they were envious of our roundabout ability in comparison with their peugout?
