I know as I was in court recently.
You must have missed my post above - I got an FPN instead. 3 points/£100

Thanks. I have no idea why I didn't have to go to court though as the Regs (as I understand them) state that at 97mph it should've been a court date.

I'm not complaining though - I got away very lightly
