Title: O/T Driving Warning Post by: MPOWER on March 28, 2006, 09:30:08 PM I have Been to Wakefield today to visit the local Court for speeding.
Got 7 day ban and £100Fine+£50 costs but no points. Some people say I was Lucky. I got zapped on the sliproad joining the M1 at Leeds. Have the feds nothing better to do. Regards M Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: Nem on March 28, 2006, 09:30:49 PM How fast?
Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: MPOWER on March 28, 2006, 09:36:03 PM 103 MPH
regards M Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: Nem on March 28, 2006, 09:38:17 PM What car? M3, M5 etc...
Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: Robert HM on March 28, 2006, 09:38:54 PM You were lucky, I guess they took your job into account, I would have expected something nearer 28 days. If you get disqualified you get your licence back without points so it's useless adding points as well as a disqualification.
Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: MPOWER on March 28, 2006, 09:43:17 PM Used M3 CSL
Coming back to Notts after showing it to a customer. who worked in Leeds and Lived in County durham. This was 11.30 on the Saturday before Christmas. Just dropped my gaurd for 1 second.I never drive quick. regards M Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: Karabiner on March 28, 2006, 10:13:27 PM I would just like to warn any Blondes that having been in a car driven by MPower for about ten minutes.
There is no f**king way that I would ever get in another one. The man tuns into Mr. Hyde when he gets behind a wheel, he should be banned from driving for life. IMHO of course ;goodvevil; Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: brad.strider on March 28, 2006, 10:14:18 PM robert ,whats the law on using your mobile phone while stopped at traffick lights in your car?
Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: Robert HM on March 28, 2006, 10:16:34 PM Grey area, but you still should be paying full attention to the road around you, including traffic lights, I wouldn't risk it.

Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: brad.strider on March 28, 2006, 10:24:51 PM i ask because i was yapping to mad on my phone last week at a set of lights when i heard a loud police siren, i turned to my left and there was a police van full of angry officers shouting at me, then followed an uncomfortable 30 secs until the lights went green, they done a left and i went straight ahead rather red faced
Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: Trace on March 28, 2006, 10:26:34 PM Hmmm that reminds me Alfa was supposed to be in court for speeding.
He couldn't remember when. I must remember to ask him what happened. He said he thought his date was in March sometime.

Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: Junior Senior on March 29, 2006, 01:27:23 PM MPower - just what is your land speed PB - i mean surely when your testing Alpina B5's on the midland's roads you must have gotten up to nearly 200MPH? - :D :D
Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: MPOWER on March 29, 2006, 04:33:58 PM BMW Alpina B5 is a 200+mph car BMW Alpina B7 is 186+ for a huge car
I have been 190mph but never hit 200mph. If you got caught doing 170+ then you would be in the Mire if you got caught i'm sure. Anyway Junior you'll find out if you come to Vegas I'll give you a lift to Gatwick Virgin Flight 25/7/6 be there or be squre matey. Regards M Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: Nem on March 29, 2006, 04:39:08 PM How do you take of the limiter on the new M5 and M6?
Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: Nem on March 29, 2006, 04:39:58 PM If you got caught going 190MPH you would be banned for 5 years.
Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: MPOWER on March 29, 2006, 04:47:16 PM BMW may take it off if you had a Racing Licence they did for M3 CSL for factory ordered cars. Customers
and who brought it with cup tyres had to sign a disclaimer due to the tyre having no grip at 7 degrees C or below. Why are you intrested in one. I bet if you got caught doing 190mph they would jail you. Regards M Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: Nem on March 29, 2006, 04:49:11 PM I bet if you got caught doing 190mph they would jail you. As well as banning you for 5 years ;) Title: Re: O/T Driving Warning Post by: MPOWER on March 29, 2006, 04:52:49 PM I never drive fast because of the ammount of fuel you use harms the enviroment.
