M1 speed camera: Woman banned from the roads for driving at 62mph

Sophia Percival was driving a black Nissan between junctions 14 and 13 of the southbound carriageway when she was caught near Milton Keynes. A variable 40mph speed limit was in place at the time of the offence on September 16 last year. Percival pleaded guilty to a single count of exceeding a variable speed limit during a hearing at High Wycombe Magistrates' Court on May 12 this year.

She appeared at the same court in August when she was banned from driving for six months and given six points on her licence.

The 37-year-old, of Hornbeam, Newport Pagnell, was also ordered to pay a ?430 fine, ?110 court costs and a ?172 surcharge.

The money is due to be paid in monthly instalments of ?120 starting from September 16.
