It's normal. I know someone done not too long ago for 106mph on the M6.
GBP600 and six-week ban; so almost the same proportion over the limit and
almost the same punishment. I was surprised, I must admit---but she's
a) very bright, and b) a total super-model-style babe, and turning up at
court dressed to kill and speaking up for herself on a Monday morning
among a motley collection of drug-crazed ASBO-magnets can't have hurt.
