Reminds me of my first speeding fine (funily enough, on the way home from a gliding instructors course at Lake Keepit many years ago) and I said to the guy "I've been driving 20 years next week and this will be my first fine" and his response was "first time you've exceeded the speed limit is it, sir?". But he was helpful, suggested I send in a letter in with the payment and ask them to review it, which they did and sent the money back and issued a caution.
And thanks to the many people who have so far responded to my request (mostly direct, as asked) I've got over 20 replies so far, pls keep them coming.
