ive currently got a license with 0 points on it

but ive had 12 points over the years.

2001 SP50 - speeding on a motorway
2003 SP30 - 40 in a 30
2004 TS10 - Jumping Lights ( still dont believe this, but long story)
2004 SP30 - 40 in a 30.

The period in 2003-2004 was when i was living in leicester and just moved into the area. Theres mobile camera vans everywhere (that was the 2 x 40 in a 30) and by the time you've seen them its too late.

The Jumping the lights issue im still adament i crossed the line when it was green, but got stuck in the middle of the junction due to somebody breaking in front. But im told this isnt possible and you have to cross the line after its gone red to set it off. So the only conclusion i can come to, is that somebody crossed the line, set the photo off, and because the traffic was at a standstill, the flash that was designed to catch the person crossing the line , caught me in a que in the middle of the junction.


Leicester is a bitch for driving, was at uni there and the gf got done for running a red on narborough, although this was at 40 and no attempt at breaking was made, but it was clear and 2am if that counts.

Was up this weekend and the amount of cameras and traffiic lights stuck on red lights still ceases to amaze me.
