Recently I have received a penalty notice for speeding in M5 tunnel (Eastbound)and was wondering if it is worth taking up to the court?
When I entered the tunnel the speed limit was 80 and no variable speed limit was imposed. However as entered there was 70 speed limit signs were flashing inside. It was all good till I noticed first sign of 50 speed limit. But then did not react fast enough to slow down and received the penalty for doing more than 10km $285 and 3 demerits.
I have a clean driving record and no demerit on my licence for last 5 years. Do you think it is worth taking to court given there was no warnings before entering the tunnel.
Many thanks
Take it to court. I just want to see how it turns out for you.
