Speeding on the M5

[SCOOP115]

On a separate note having spent £millions and caused lots of disruption in the making I believe Smart Mways are now under review because of an increase in accidents. I don't use them much especially at busy times. Anyone for or against?

I've got no qualms about using them - Think about NSL Dual carriagways with no hard shoulder. All down to drivers being aware of whats going on (yes I know thats a perfect world) Still a lot of reluctance from some people. I used to travel back down the M6 J4 to the M5 and on the Smart section, when open, could hold a steady 60mph (or whatever the limit was) and still people would bunch up in lanes 1 & 2

I've been offered 3 points and take a course. Think I'll just accept it.

I do drive at up to 80mph on Mways so can't really complain. Consider myself pretty good at keeping to limits around town. One thing I always do is leave a good distance between me and the one in front.

Is that 3 points or the Course ? (Can't be both) Looking at the chart 72 in a 60 just takes you outside of the band A bracket where I think the offer of a course is
