Anyone been done for going into restricted lane on M42.?
I was in artic travelling north on M42 today(near Tamworth) in the section where over 7.5t wagons are restricted from outside lane. Anyway following two other artics when they both pulled into restricted lane and overtook a slow moving low loader. As they pulled out the slow lowloader virtually stopped and i decided to pull into restricted lane to avoid a pile up. Overtook then straight back in.
As i overtook i went under a bridge and noticed some cameras over each lane. Is that me knackered? Anyone else been done?
You’re probably going to do time for it. You should be out for Christmas if you’re lucky.
ask some of fernwoods drivers as they in the suicide lane permanently
If its the little square ones they are just monitoring the flow of traffic, they dont physically take pictures, or possibly Anpr but i.m certain they arent to police the weight limit

Christmas 2018, what a Heinous Crime !
I have heard drivers being fined but its usually a police patrol in the vicinity
Never heard of anyone been done, I have used the said lane in an act of common sense and safety,for exceptionally slow moving vehicles and similar,I carnt imagine any court in the land would convict you for “common sense overuse”.
Witnessed a Truck being pulled over by police on the A14 recently as he was in the weight limit lane when the blue lights came on and the rozzers pulled him into a layby, so i assume they wanted a word
