sidenote:
baring in mind the chance of killing someone at 40mph, compared to 30mph. don't you think that going 10mph over the limit should be a bannable offence!
do you think the police/courts let you off with points & a fine because they're nice, or do you think that they give you (up to 5) chances because they know that its better to concentrate on the road ahead & know that with in the space on 10/15 seconds its very easy to be going 5/10mph over the limit with out noticing
how long is a piece of string ?
just in case you don't get my point, you can't get a number of offences from "a string of speeding convictions." so for all you know he's only had 2 or 3 convictions, of which he could have been unlucky for all of them.
Anyone day dreaming for 5 seconds whilst at the wheel of a car should never be allowed to drive again. What is this bollox about having to constantly look at your speedo? Dont you ever check your mirrors? Cant you tell how fast you are going by the sound and feel of your car anyway?
Why dont you just admit you want to drive at the speed you deem to be suitable rather than thinking up a load of garbage to try and justify doing it by accident?
