k, just to put things straight before any wrong info gets posted. if you get 6 points or over in your first 2 years of passing your test, your licence will be revoked and you will be put back to provisional status so you have to re-sit and extended test! reason i asked if it was a FP or if it was in court is because a fixed penalty is exacly what it says fixed at that fine, that No. of points to which you sign to agree to! if you need you licence for work, you best bet is to request a court hearing (by filling in the back of the ticket or contacting the camera people/central ticket office)
