Gutted Mate - just hope it goes well, get everything you can in your favour - letters etc. I got a solicitor, but that was for a CD10, not speeding.

Smokey - Be prepared nate, I got my letter 10 days before the 6th months was up, so annoying.

5 points and £210 fine for the trouble, I did close the Road for 6 hours though - and dleayed everyone who live in Nottingham / Derby for quite some time. Apologies.

Odd question but where is the A303, it sounds familier!

 

[richieroo]

my brother got 10day ban and £75fine for 106mph on the A34 - thats a result!

How did you manage that?

 

[James Bushell]

A303 runs from the A303 to Cornwall.. Lovely bit of road... Proly why its full or old bill...

 

[Harry_manback]

is it true that camera vans have 14 days to get a letter to you or else they dont count??? i remember reading it on an RAC website somwhere,

a guy i used to work with was banned for 2 years for doing over 100 in a 30 limit in sc**thorpe. he got pulled out of the car and arrested on the spot. quality!!!

Its funny how the system works.

I was caught at 97.2mph on the A19 and only received 3 points

 

[Floodie]

Good luck mate hope all goes well.. heres my illegal stats too FYI !

- 118 on A1 = 56 day ban + £300 fine.. no points (Solicitor)

- 101 somewhere else = 7 day ban + £250 fine.. no points!! (No solicitor)

Also, this question was asked earlier but does anyone know.. how long will these Endorsment things stay on my license?.. it was about 4 years ago now.. thanks

 

[Red Valver]

I got cought doing 98 in a 70 on the M20 = result 3 points and a £60 fine

Its crazy how different police forces enforce their rules

what a joke !

They used to be active for 3 years but couldnt come off for 4. Suppose the last year was like a period if you got caught again they could say you hadnt learnt your lesson.

A303 runs from london way down through hampshire and onto the west country doesnt it?

 

[Decto]

Points are counted for 3 years from conviction for the purposes of totting up.

After 4 years you can apply to have them removed. I think there are exceptions for Drink Driving, Dangerous Drivings, Causing Death by...ect. These stay for 10 years (I think)

Insurance will usually ask if you have had any convictions including points, bans etc. in the previous 5 years so even if you have the points removed from the licence you still have to declare.

Nothing to stop insurance asking what you did in the last 10 years.... it may well come one day soon.
