"Getting a speeding fine in the post can really spoil your day, especially if you're a law-abiding citizen who, as a rule, keeps to the speed limit. But, there's your car captured on camera, and there's the notice says you were speeding: at a specific time, on a specific date, at a specific place. Devi Sankaree Govender (Carte Blanche presenter): "We don't all react in the same way but it's safe to say that nobody wants to find this [speeding fine] in their mail. You feel irritated but also somewhat powerless because the evidence is right there and it does look as if you're guilty."
