    Wow that's weird. Pretty big fine for going 8Km under. Aren't most speedo's turned down a little bit so your always going under the speed limit cause then they might have actually only been going 2km under. Just a thought

    Na, its gotta be fake - you could never do 70k's through the tunnel at 6pm. You would be lucky to do 60!

    Good observation there. However, seeing that the date of offence is blurred, we don't know what day of the week it was. Could have been on a weekend.

    Also check "Infringement Offence" says exceed speed limit by 10kph but less than 15.

    Theyve swapped the "7" and "8" around. On my screen you can see it quite easily. The permitted speed is 70 km/h the detected speed was 82 and the alleged speed is 80.

    Hate to be a kill joy, Id love to see this happen, but fake.

    haha good. more people should get charged for doing under the speed limit. especially in the fast lane!

    excuse my ignorance - i don't know how to read the speeding ticket... was this fine recorded on a speed camera or would it have been an officer writing a speeding ticket manually? it can't possibly have been a speeding camera, people slow down for various reasons/dangers... which means this could only be possible if a police officer was following the person and they were doing 70 for absolutely no reason at all for a considerable amount of time. but i can't tell from the ticket.

    what a novel way of trying to fight a ticket

    edit: GE4CE - does burnley tunnel have variable speed limit? maybe thats why? but thats usually 80, 60, or 40 - making this edit pointless but I've written it now anyway

    Haha funny.
    Whats the go with "Exceed speed in vehicle other than a heavy vehicle"? Do heavy vehicles have a different speed limit or something?
