Depends on the margin of allowence they've had. I've once went through them when they first started rather faster than expected didn't get a ticket because they had forgotten to turn them on. But last time I've went through them at speeds varying between 30 and 40. But it works out the average speed you go. I'm not sure if the cruise control actually does true 40mph or in reality just a little bit below 40mph.

I think Cruise sets it at whatever actual speed you're doing, which is read out in km/h by my trip computer. The actual speedo needle seems to sit just below the actual figure.
See what happens anyway...

Just washed and tumble dried my Key smartcard, hoping it can still be read otherwise I'm screwed for the rest of the week.

Your Xperia will have NFC. Enable it it and try and read your key card. If it responds, then the card is fine. Smile

Sweet, didn't know NFC could do that.

Edit : Just tried it and it flashed up "NFC read error." Is that good or bad?

That's good. It's a read error because the data means nothing to the reader. The fact it's worked means the card is still transmitting, so you should have no bother on the bus.

Seeing a driver on the 7 getting grief from some low life piece of scum because the charging points are "turned off" which of course actually means they aren't working. Not the first time it's happened and it wouldn't surprise me if it's the same "person" if you can call him that!

99% of the time these charge points have been unintentionally turned off by a actual passenger using an after market charging cable that's not fit for use and trips the circuit.

7522 has a serious problem with its power sockets. They work, but they suck power from the device, and has done since delivery.

If this damned X12 had shown up on the tracker, I'd have known that it would be late enough to give me time to find a loo.

Just need to cross my legs all the way from Stockton to Durham.
