Thanks Dragon Fly.
We have measured with a trundle wheel and an online map app.
The police stated in which drive way they were stood and we have taken the worst measurement from the furthest side of the driveway, even though my son said they were stood behind the nearest end.
Rather than plead not guilty do you think he should plead guilty and put something about this in his mitigation so they are more lenient?
I have a feeling the police knew that it was very close to the limit as I would have thought they would have said approx. 250m otherwise? approx. 300m to me is 280-320, not 240?
The statement is also misleading as it makes it seem as if my son was 300m within the limit.
I know in law it doesn't matter how far inside you are but surely its worse that far in to the village, rather than at the 30mph limit sign?
PS Just noticed I put 'be laser' not 'by laser' in the heading - that will be the Cornish in me!
