Fastest jd in the west?

[hally]

Don't know whether to laugh or cry.
Just been done at a notorious local speed camera for 46mph in a 30mph zone

This is actually our 6130r john deere admittedly with a 50k box but certainly not capable of 46mph or 74 kph.

someone cloned your plate ? or were you there at the time ? (your mobile phone would be a good way to prove this if you are logged into google or facebook etc ?)

 

[hally]

No it was definitely us at the time Clive but the speed is ridiculous.

Would it have been reading the tyre rotation speed rather than the vehicle?

 

[Grouse]

Dispute it and go to court

 

[Lincs Lass]

How can they read a number plate on the back of the cab if its going towards the camera

How fast do you think the tyre was rotating ? It would be double the road speed to give an idea I guess?

If it was a fixed orange Gatso type they read the rear plates.

Might be in the tractors brain box, they record lots of info

They "should" be able to double check the speed by comparing the interval as the tractor passed the white line markings on the road.

Did they though? Its definitely one to be challenging.

If it has jd live link then it will be stored somewhere

 

[A1an]

That's quality.

Id make a meal out of it just for sh1ts and giggles.

 

[HAM135]

Thats 73km/h,put those big fendts to shame,maybe not get 29mpg though!

1st stop local paper - anything to discredit plod - that is assuming that you were not freewheeling down hill with 30 tons of shite in yer Marston

Next time ,,Dont wash it

Fraid not just a 3ton unidrill

 

[mogman]

Ask for the photographic proof
You will get two pictures taken with a timed difference between them showing you where you were on the road on the white lines, a simple sum will soon tell you how fast you were traveling

 

[hally]

Tried to ring the number on the notice but it is only open from 11am to 4pm ffs, how short a day do they really need.

 

[Pilgrimmick]

Wait 30 days and see what happens!

Those Warwick bridge cameras are brutal, my father in law got done at 32mph. I always pass through there about 25mph to be safe.

This is laughable though, as above I’d enjoy making a meal out of them.
I was passing a mobile camera van today in the tractor thinking to myself, no front plate, and a silage trailer up behind, no way of indentifying.
