had 6, lost 'em, then picked up 3 more last month.

I've still got the letter i read out in court saving me a ban, if anyone wants a copy... A heart-rending tale involving a mother who lives alone, a (generally) law abiding son, and a planned visit over christmas. The magistrates wept openly

3 - not bad for 50k pa altho I rarely do more than 85 these days, except on bike

Was wondering about this myself.


Currently 3, soon to be 6. Present points run out in 15 months (that's going on 4 years, not 3). I've never had more than 6 at any one time, and I'd like to keep it that way.

I don't believe I ride (or drive) faster than average, but obviously people who travel on unfamiliar roads are more at risk.


I found (probably) the same link as Rushjob quotes, but it doesn't mention this "3 years" business. Can anyone give chapter and verse on that?
Are we talking about how insurance companies regard it, or the actual totting-up for bans, etc?

This post gives me the shivers

It's tempting fate - declaring nil points probably means that some will be winging their way pronto

All in HGV's.

I've had sports cars and bikes and never got a single point. Get my HGV licence and rack em up in no time - bugger!

The details are as follows...

54 in a 50 @ 4.00am only vehicle on the road!
56 in a 50 @ 4.00am only vehicle on the road!
51 in a 40
51 in a 40

All of them on twin lane single carriageway bipass's - no houses/schools/pavements/people for miles around.

A bit lame if you ask me. Not like speeding past a school or something.
