Which part of the A46 did the speeding offence occur, as from A1 South Bound the A46 is Dual Carriageway right up to Lincoln South turn off, therefore if you were idenitifed on that bit, you won't get a ban as limit is 70mph.
Disquals only occur when you do 30mph above speed limit.
I always ride within 10% of the speed limit. Except the A5 from Walsall to Cannock as the speed cameras are not set at 10% + 2mph, because Staffordshire Speed Camera partnership or not human.
If it goes to court, then you need a very good traffic solicitor (A few good ones in the Lace Market). And I would advise that you signup for advance training, that way, you are making it clear that you have taken heed of your actions.
Your solicitor can then state that you are an advanced rider, and despite the road conditions (assuming the road was dry and clear and visibility was good) you should get a fine and 6 points on your licence.
