Anne Robinson banned for speeding in Portsmouth

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/hampshire/7499376.stm

Here's the wtf? "Michael McGoldrick, mitigating, said Robinson had not seen the camera as she was disorientated by the road system on her first ever visit there."

Since when has 'not seeing the camera' been a defence??

If I was hearing her case i'd have been so tempted to tell her defence lawyer "you are the weakest link, goodbye" ;)

WHS.

Same goes for every driver who says "Sorry, Mate - I didn't see you" to the broken biker lying under his bumper...

To reach 88 miles per hour, and go back to stop the idiot that built it, obviously.

I do find it a bit odd. It appears she was coming off the ferry and got disorientated. Well when you come out of the port there is a big sign saying M3 London, as well as other destinations. Can't really miss it. Portsmouth is one of the easiest ferry ports to get out of
