    I didn’t bother to read the link above but my reply to the thread’s title is that all drivers are one conviction away from a ban. If the driving offence is serious – e.g. drink driving, dangerous driving or gross speeding, the driver will probably get a ban straight off, even for a first offence.

    Thats a very good point B55. I suppose the link explains one million small offences…which is what the headline was referring to, had you taken part, you’d know :wink:

    my brother in law is one of those unfortunate folk he drives a hgv for a living. he wont be able to make a living shortly. all of his points are for speeding. he works nights and mostly the motorways are clear but the boys in blue are out in force with their SAFETY cameras. where are the children playing on the motorway at 2 in the morning ??? its all b ollo x its about collecting revenue and getting ppl off the roads and nothing to do with safety. the twoc merchants and drugged up boy racers who drive without a license or insurance never get caught unless they actually crash or are caught by chance so its the working man that pays yet again.

    Unless by some miracle they desist from breaking the law as it relates to spped limits. Then they can continue to drive and pay nothing in fines eh?
