If it really is that far from the junction to the point he was
caught, I cannot see how he can possibly argue that his car is
incapable of reaching 58mph in that distance. I would suggest it
could comfortably achieve that from a standing start.

I think we need the OP to confirm the locations of where the
camera was, and where the car was travelling from.

Well Tawananyasha let us hope as your name implies that "you
have found grace or mercy from the Most High" in this case the
Most High is the Po Po and from past personal experience of The
Po Po GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR FIGHT.

As above - I've done that route many times - my 15 y/o Fiesta
would easily get from 30 past 50 in that distance (in the right
gear!).
Someone hasn't told us the whole story here..............

I know that area very well. The camera in question is an average
speed camera. The exit camera is, I believe, quite a few miles
down the road just past the Well Hall Road underpass. Plenty of
time to achieve an average speed of 58mph.
There's a whole host of average speed cameras on that stretch
through to the Blackwall Tunnel and quite how the cameras work
with one another is a bit of a mystery but this link gives some
clues as to which sections are 'policed' by the cameras -

Line 123 on the spreadsheet - Southwold Rd On Slip nr A2 East

This guy is obviously not going to discuss this anymore so maybe
we just close the thread.
