Just got caught speeding on the M6 Toll but what was the speed limit?

[GraemeC]

Hi all,

I just got flashed by a speed camera on on the south bound of the M6 toll road, right at the end of the toll road where it merges.

The thing is that just before i got flashed i saw a sign saying "variable speed limits".

Does anyone know the speed limits for that stretch of the M6? and what i'll be receiving in the post for doing 91mph

any news?

Probably 6 points on your driving licence and a hefty fine. I think at that speed you were going too fast to be a candidate to attend a road safety/speeding workshop instead of getting penalty points on your licence.

Why on earth were you doing that kind of speed in the current weather with snowy or icy road conditions? The national speed limit is 70 mph. Speed can kill. Just imagine if you'd hit an icy patch you didn't realise was there and what might have happened doing that speed if you'd had to brake suddenly, skidded and your car had overturned. Hope you've made your Will?

Just thyought i'd add an update...

Nothing recieved in the post so one can only assume that the camera was not working! Wooo! Phew!

Lesson learnt though!
