There is a cap of £1,000 on minor speeding offences or up to £2,500 for major ones.

A three band system will determine the severity of an offence and corresponds to different charges.

I see this on the news - sounds good the fact that footballers etc on allot of money will have to pay a hell of allot more in comparison to people on low wages but this kind of money is still nothing to them as they have so much so the only thing I see working is raising more money for the government.

do they need more or d they need to start practicing what they preach about waste ? I would look like to put forward a alternative to the government but as Jeremy is not that - its pointless.
