I?ve just got a ticket for doing 62 in a 50, but I was over taking a car at the time. Which was doing about 40, Is it worth arguing my case or just pay the fine. [emoji25]

It was a mobile speed van, I didn?t see it because there was a double decker bus up the road. And as I was passing the car the camera van came in to view behind the bus. They say they?ve got photo or video evidence

Ok thanks for the advice, I?ll have to think about it. I?ve just got a clean license back and was going to reapply for my gun licence. They don?t like it when you?ve got points on your driving licence for some reason!

Thats a new one on me if you mean shotgun licence.
Will you get the offer of speed awareness?
Its annoying because on a safer rider course with the police, you?re advised to make ?good progress? in an overtake and make sure your TED (Time Exposed to Danger) in minimised. They pretty much agree that temporarily speeding is ok in the real world.
But speed cameras be shit and black/white.

Blitz I just renewed my Shotgun Licence last month with no problems and I'm sitting on 6 points. You talking about a firearms Cert, not a Shottie Licence.

No a shotgun licence, but when I phone the BASC that was the first thing they asked me, how many points I had on my driving licence. I?m applying for a new licence not renewal, but that?s good to know that you have points on your driving licence [emoji106]

Aye mate. Least of your worries that one mate... could be what jurisdiction you come under...can't see ours would be more relaxed than yours with the amount of violence in Glasgow lol

That is weird. Why ask basc, they are not responsible for licencing, your regional firearms police department deal with it.
This links directly to the application form in your region:

There is a question about convictions but fixed penalties are not included so dont see what the problem is.
As soof has said, the speed is within the range for being offered an SAC (up to 10% +9mph over the limit - or 64 in a 50 limit) - assuming that the offence was in England or Wales, and that you have not done an SAC for a speeding offence committed less than 3 years earlier.
'Evidence' is generally only supplied if you let them take you to court - although if you write to them requesting "photos to help to identify the driver" (before you tell them that you were driving), they will usually oblige.
If you were to go to court and plead not guilty (ignored/rejected offer of SAC and fixed penalty), the sentencing guidelines (if convicted) would be 3 points ~50% relevant weekly income, 'victim' surcharge and up to ?620 prosecution costs.
