take the 3 points on your licence or attend training day?

[brimfull]

Have no other points.

if this is the speed awareness course then I took that option. I did it to avoid points on my licence but found the course very good and thought provoking. A lot of thought has gone into the design of it and it is not just sitting there being told off or preached to - they are trying to get you to understand the impact of speeding. It worked with me and I'm much more careful now - and not because I don't want to get caught but because I don't want to kill anyone and whilst the probability may be low the impact would be devastating.

DH did the training day - comments much like Mrs Wobble. So I would too if the situation arose.

definitely training day

what are the disadvantages of 3 points on licence-have never had any

Problems with points - might affect your insurance premium? Means if you get caught again you have suddenly got 6 points which would affect your insurance premium and leave you closer to a ban. For some jobs you need a clean licence.

I'd go for the course.

Course.

right course it is then

thanks

You're probably meant to inform your insurer anyway if you've been 'done', whichever penalty you choose.

Training day, without a shadow of a doubt. Points can give you problems, learning can give you benefits.
