Quick question.....

Having a Nat moment!! :freak:

I am just sorting out my car insurance and I have three points for speeding.

Is it SP30? I am sure my insurance at the mo is a different code? :?

I cannot find my paper part of my licence or my insurance certificate

There are lots of speeding codes.

SP30, SP50 etc

Were you caught in a 30mph zone?

No on the way to the Essex meet on the A14 in my old teg!

You really need to find the other part of your license to check but i think an SP30 is for speeding a 30 limit (never having been cought speeding i may be wrong ), is that where you were done?

If it's three points then more then likely SP30.

SP30 is speeding on a public road. SP50 is speeding on a motorway. I should know - I have both.

I am sure it is a different code but on confused.com from the quotes I got last year SP30 was in there so that's what I must of put down?? :freak:

I have a drawer full of crap. As long as it's not on show I consider it to be tidy! :lol:

How fast were you going?

 

[gnat]

Do you think it would matter if it was the wrong code insurance wise if I had to claim etc?

 

[dotty]

No on the way to the Essex meet on the A14 in my old teg!

The one where you got lost?

Is there a code for a parking ticket?

Yes that one! :lol:

Yes, if you had to claim and they check your docs they can technically refuse to pay out.

Slammed brakes on but still went through at 85. Not that bad!

Yes, they will look for any excuse not to pay out - do not give them that opportunity... I would say you have either an SP30 or an SP60 for the A14.

In a 60? I did that in a 50 and got away with it.. The ironic thing is that I was on my way to court for doing 102 in a 70.

SP30 covers it.

Yeah that's the choice you get. Which one though as surely it could be one of three of them? SP30, SP20 or SP60?

Or does the number represent the limit on whatever road you were on? (probably a really stupid thing to ask!)

Yes a stupid thing. :lol:

Won't be SP20 as that is for HGV etc.
