I had to do a speed awareness course once.
Motorbike, North Wales, what more can I say.
I was surprised at the atmosphere on the course. It wasn't a "you've been naughty, now you've got to learn all the ways your behaviour could kill someone" which is what I expected. More an educational thing like we were all normal people rather than dirty speeders.
Anyway instructor learned I was a cyclist and made me explain Smidsy to the whole class amongst other things which as someone with an irrational anxiety of public/group speaking was enough punishment for me to never want to speed again.
Still, fucking empty pedestrian crossings.
