'I'm allowed 12 points' - Police blast 'poor attitude' of speeding Range Rover driver

Traffic cops have slammed the 'poor attitude' of a driver, who was caught doing 47mph in a 30mph zone.

Police officers were carrying out speed enforcement checks in Bury Road, Tottington, this afternoon (Sunday January 3).

A woman, driving a Range Rover, was caught speeding along the road and despite allegedly having three points on her licence, police claimed that she was unfazed by the prospect of further punishment.

A spokesman for GMP Bury North wrote on Facebook: "Officers issued 5 traffic offence reports whilst conducting speed enforcement on Bury Road, Bury.

"The driver of this Range Rover was doing 47mph in a 30mph zone.

"Already having 3 points on her licence for speeding, her reply to officers was 'well I'm allowed 12 points'. Poor attitude towards road safety."
