beat that !! :D
 
I've been clean since 97, once had 15 points without being banned (really not proud of that), and I hope to stay that way. 3 weeks ago this Saturday I overtook a lorry right at a speed camera and I'm hoping the lorry blocked me from said camera.
 
I've had
I passed in October 2007
Sp30 - dec 2007
Dd40 - March 2008 banned for 1 year
Lc20 - March 2010

All clean now though and hope to keep it that way!
 
the in10 one added 6 points to 6 points that i already had within two years of passing so i had to re pass my bike test all over again,nothing more gut wrenching than that so new riders take note

idk why the points aint showing it could have been on my old licence not sure now

wouldnt 6 points to 6 poins = 12 and ban?
 
Passed my test in Oct' 89, got pulled for speeding before I passed on my RD125LC and was given a proper rollocking, yes sir no sir won't do it again sir, sorry.

Managed to keep a clean sheet ever since, 26 years and not a single point. Must be the Gary Lineker of the biking world :o

Pretty much same as me, apart from it was a TZR125 in 1990 and got done for 70 in a 30 on a provisional oops (not as bad as it sounds as it's actually quite a major road and it was midnight!) Had to go to court which scared crap out of me. Amazingly no ban, just 3 points and a severe telling off from the judge. Worked though as been clean since then!
 
I passed my bike test on the 21st of August 1993, 3 days after my 17th birthday.

I've also averaged around 40k plus a year in company vans and cars, as well as my own personal car mileage.

I've never had any points, I've never had a parking fine, I've been pulled over plenty of times, just never been done for anything.
 
Got my car licence and then got caught doing 50 in a 40 on my VT125 by mobile speed camera. Not had anything since, but I've been pretty close.
 
Past in 2007, nothing on record :)

Though i did get a slap on the wrist once. I approached the back of an unmarked police car at about 100, he was chasing some other guy. He pulled me and somebody else over and gave us a telling off.

I once passed an unmarked police car on a 50mph road, & I was doing in excess of a 100 & still accelerating, there was a wee chase which I was completely oblivious to, & he eventually caught up to me on the outskirts of the city when I hit traffic lights & started behaving like a responsible individual again.

Luckily it was 5:45 in the morning & there was no other traffic to get tangled up with, so I only posed a threat to myself, but I got the mother of all rollockings at the side of the road and sent on my way, no ticket, fine or points, just an absolute earful for being an utter tit.

This was around about 98/99 before ANPR & camera cars had become common place, there's no way you could get away with that kind of idiocy now.
 
I got 3 points about 18 years ago, and it's been clean since then, amazingly. I did have a narrow miss last year, I was reported for doing "not less than 94mph" on a DCW, but fortunately I was offered a bike specific course (aimed towards riders who engage in anti-social behaviour!) instead of points and a fine.
 
Got flashed doing 34 or 35 in a 30 in my car year ago, was late for an interview as couldn't find the bloody place, went past a red light camera... or at least I thought it was. - did a speed awareness course. Nothing else in nearly 14 years of driving, although only had my bike licence since December so there's plenty of time yet! :p
 
I have only ever had points on my licence from my car.
and its been clean the past 10 years.
first on the road on a bike in 1981 and have never been caught on my bikes
