3 speeds awareness courses? I thought you could only go on one??
That sucks, Basically because whenever I have seen this happen they typically do it with little publicity and change the limit to 30 simply by unbolting the 40 lollipops.
Of course cue the Talivan a week later to "Enforce" the new limit.
People who are regular users of the road just dont see it coming...
No you want people to get cought speeding so you can gain and revenue from it.Exactly, I don't get it. Surely the aim behind reducing a speed limit is to... slow traffic down. Which signs will do! You WANT people to be clear it's a 30!
Wouldn't matter what he was wearing if you were doing the speed limit, you were nearly 50% over the limit and it's the coppers fault for wearing black![]()
I've never been asked if I've attended a Speed awareness course when taking out a policy, let alone charged extra for attending one in 2014I've read a couple of articles about people's insurance premiums rising even if they have been on a safety awareness course.
My insurance renewal is due next week.
Some insurers (Admiral Group are one I know of) ask if you've been on a SAC, but I don't know if it affects the premium.I've read a couple of articles about people's insurance premiums rising even if they have been on a safety awareness course.
My insurance renewal is due next week.
My point is that if they really cared about 'saving lives due to speeding offences' then they would actively position themselves in visible locations as a deterrent, not hide at the bottom of a hill in non-reflective clothing at 11pm at night pointing a laser gun at the top of the hill.
I'm all for speed cameras in safety hot spots, but this was a purely money making exercise.

Whilst that may be the case, if for some reason they found out they'll take your non-admission as a way to instantly void your insurance which is 10x worse.Don't tell them. It doesn't leave anything on your licence and the details aren't on a central database for them to check on. They can't just phone up whoever runs it and ask either, because of the data protection act.
and as far as I know theres no central database they can check on.
Yes, but I was addressing the comment you made about there being no central database for SAC's - there is. And insurance companies could check on this database if the need existed, just like they could check the DVLA databases.That is done on the police database, which is who the NIP comes from. The DVLA only get informed about the conviction after the fact. If you take the course there is no conviction.
