A pensioner caught speeding in a 1923 Ford Model T says he is shocked - especially considering that the ancient car doesn't even have a speedometer.
Dave Stanisfield, whose vintage car is 19 years older than him, was snapped at 35mph in a 30mph zone - apparently baffling the driver, who is more used to holding up traffic than breaking the law.
The two-gear 'Tin Lizzie' was capable of doing a modest 46mph when new, but the pensioner says he didn't believe that 90 years later it would even top 30mph.
But although he disputed the ticket, the semi-retired mechanic was unable to prove his innocence to Worcester magistrates, and has accepted the fine.
"I'm no boy racer or Lewis Hamilton," he told The Telegraph.
"I'm a 67-year-old man in an 86-year-old car.
"I don't go racing about the place."
The legendary Ford Model T, which was first produced in 1908, is considered the car which popularised the automobile in the early years of motoring. It was voted the most influential car of the 20th Century.
