Mikey Jay Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 How did you lose your licence? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sam_turbs Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 i was doing about a hundred along this contry lane nere my village went round a sharp bend bout 45 a lorry flashed me so i thought he was just bein a wanker, so as you do i put my foot down and the coppers where round the next corner with a gun. got caught doin 55 in a thirty. he said he heard me comin a mile away opps lol. the reason they took my licence was because i have only been driving for one month under 2 years so they gave me six points and i lost my licence and have to take a retest. the piss take is im 19 and now my insurance is just over 2k third party fire theft.

sam_turbs Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 they gave me 6 points because the dvla didnt think that 3 was right so they sent me to court :-( iam really sorry at the mo i really miss my car and i was gutted the fact i only had a month to go until i could get 12 points. i shouldnt have any but its better than takin a retest isn't it. it hasnt been a goos couple of months because bout 2 weeks after my big ends went!!!

GLS_mike Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 nah they said that they only do driver awareness if you have been driving longer than two years which is a bitch they said i would benifit retaking my test! which is rubbishNot True!!! i got caught speeding by a camera on the day after i passed and they asked if i wanted to do it....cost £60 but dont get points. if youre in 30 Zone you can go to 38mph, anything above that and you cant take the 'SpeedChoice' workshop.Oh wait...i think it may be only in the South West...... and its only for 'Low speeders' .....
