So from what we can deduce so far, the village he drove through now has blanket ANPR enforced average speed cameras, with several cameras dotted around the village to supposedly catch you driving through the village overspeed, with road types/furniture which wouldn't immediately be clear to be a 30 by deduction. (previously being a 40).
No speed school possible, he did one last year. Our concern is, points wise, if he tries to defend himself, and he gets a difficult magistrate, they could give him maximum 4? points for each offence, leaving him with little leeway on his license. Thank you all for your input so far... i will keep you posted, and will most likely take a look at those suggested above. Thanks!
Ah yes the average speed cameras- getting more common in my neck of the woods. Having said this, drivers got a lot of warnings on the nearest stretch to mine with massive (and I do mean gigantic) warning signs everywhere. Perhaps you dad drove through 3 average cameras speeding, hence the 2 offences? Annoying but personally I don't see him succeeding in appealing, but you never know. The 2 "tickets" do need clarifying though.
