I had a feeling this day would come. Looks like they're switching them back on again. Got two through for last week, 71 in a 50 and 68 in a 50... luck was going to run out sooner or later
Where abouts was this? I always worry about the cameras on the motorway catching me out, i've been flashed a few times but no tickets ... yetI had a feeling this day would come.

i think they only brought in the 6 point limit recently.I had one a short time after I passed in 2003, caught near an industrial estate in dear old Lowestoft doing 42 in a 30.
Took me to court and I got 4 points and a £180 fine in my absence, was a dicey time trying to be good for the 2 years until I got more than a 6 point allowance!

Ouch gaining 6 points has seen my bike renewal go down and my car stay about the same.I've not had one for 6 years and then got 2 in a week back in December
First was an average speed camera. 50 in a 40
Second was a gatso, saw the flash, was doing 36 in a 30.
Annoyingly it's also changed my insurance renewal from £450 to £600. I never expected 3 points to make such a difference (took the course for the first offence).
Well, if 1995 is recent! New Drivers Act was brought in then which had the 6 point limit for first two years.

I'm confused now, as I'm positive the 6 points thing only came out a couple of years ago as it was quite a big thing in the papers. Fwiw I never had to worry as I've been driving for 18 years without any points.Well, if 1995 is recent! New Drivers Act was brought in then which had the 6 point limit for first two years.
