Folks,
Advice from people who have knowledge experience will be appreciated.
This querie is about speeding so if your comment is along the lines of
"do the crime do the time", " dont speed ", lecturing etc please dont bother.
On a ride on the OPH and knowing the reputation of the OPH I ride slowly etc.
Turned the right hand corner past the road warrier Cafe that leads to the straight road past the CFA station when suddenly Mr Highway patrol appears from the CFA driveway and pulls me over. Reckons I was doing 96 in a 60k zone and got issued with a ticket.
As if the $800 isn't bad enough I think this is automatic suspension of license for 3 months even with 13 yrs clean license. Apparently this may also affect my insurance.
To those perfect ones out there, yeah I know I should have been paying more attention etc etc etc. Fact is its a country road, no other traffic so no visual clues etc and I simply messed up.
So here are the questions;
Will my license be suspended
Given the overall circusmstances is it worth going to court or is the high level speeding so horrendous that I shouldn't even bother.
Thanks in advance for advice.
Cheers
