I wouldn't lose any sleep over it until something drops through your letterbox... the 'flash' may not have been for you... and many cameras flash but have no film in them anyway!

Hi Lab, Log the Time, Date, Location, If you have left your place of work, get a record of your leaving time (Clock Card etc, or wherever you have left can they confirm your leaving time? the distance from where you left to the time of the camera flashing, Is your Speedo correct? Be one step ahead, too many people leave things and pay for something that they have not commited. Many Years on H.G.Vs has taught me that. T.W.R.

How does what time he left work etc affect whether he was speeding or not???

obviously you are too dim to realise it but TWR is trying to arm you with eveidence that may help if you should come to court. You see if they do try and prosecute then you will have to plead not guilty and attempt to show that you where not speeding. Fortunately that's where the hatch marks on the road come in but I fear the explanation will be beyond you if you cannot grasp what TWR was trying to do.

Needless to say, Twenty 20 & Lab 1986 has not thought this through, Why do you not think about the Answer before putting in you answers, When you get done for Speeding they calculate your speed from Lamp post to lamp post or simular, If the person asking the Question left work at a given time, his speed would have been calculated to the Camera, How do I know, Ex HGV & have been there, I proved they were wrong.
