    I see the chap who got caught doing 156mph, whilst on his mobile phone, got off with it yesterday

    Now I know why Calum moved to Kirkcaldy :clown:

    Edit: Also noted this interesting quote from the article 'He also regularly races his Mini Cooper at tracks across the country'.

    Yip he got off with it on a technicality.

    The Police never sent a notice of intention to prosecute..

    I heard it last night on the wireless..

    The Guy Races at Knockhill he did the Mini challenge couple of years.. Nice guy.. If you go to the Gallery and look there is a crashe Pepper white mini that was his...

    Anyways.. House prices in Fife will be going up then....

    Nice Traffic Police... Bet some boy in blue will be getting an ass kicking over this one..

    Cheers Brian....

    I got caught in the same place the same week; doing a mere 95! Unfortunately, I wasn't as lucky as Ronnie!

    If he races at Knockhill, what the hell was he doing 156 on the A92 for? And using his phone at the same time.

    Pretty poor if you ask me.

    If you see all the speed bumps, head on disaster traffic calming and 20 & 40mph limits they are putting in Fife you would not be so keen :(

    The police are always trapping their, it is usually a white van with the back door open. They sometime publish in one of the Fife local newspapers where the traps are going to be. 156mph and the mobile is madness. Oh also watch in the east dunbartonshire area of Glasgow they are setting up more traps and seemingly going to introduce some more cameras, watch out for the one going to and from Strathblane to Milngavie.
