At 6 points they revoke the license in uk anyway

Yes in your first 2 years. Or have they changed it from 12?

No, it's 12 normally

It’ll be fine - you’ll likely be offered an awareness course (which it sounds like you’d benefit from if you had no idea what speed you were doing).
Good luck

Hi ladies no need to get all funny I come to ask for decent advice yes I admit iv made a mistake and we all mess up sometimes

I guess il learn from it going further

but thanks for all the kind advice and reasonable answers I have sent it off and will hope for the best I don’t kind 3 points or even a course

it is what it is xx

♥️

Mind*

Hope it’s ok OP. I used to be a bit of a speed demon but we got a speeding ticket where they said we’d ’ignored previous letters’. We hadn’t because why the heck would you! We hadn’t received them. We couldn’t remember who was driving so DH took the hit and it was a £400 fine and 3 points. It caused me a lot of worry so I do understand. He then got the ticket for 53 in a 50 usually a 70 and did the course so ever since then I’m really careful and use cruise control.

Yeah I think Ik be using the cruise control now to lol I will keep u all updated on the outcome 😜

Yeah I think I'll be using the cruise control

That was actually a key message from my speed awareness course, use speed limiters and or cruise control.

Good afternoon ladies

so the letter come today and they have offered me a course as the threshold is 86 and anything under that is a course

thank god and thanks for all ur advice
😃

Good to hear. Now really take on board what is said - they're actually really informative.

If it's your first time, they'll offer you a speed awareness course.

That’s good. And remember motorways are 70

YY, pay attention and learn on the course. One thing they teach you is how to easily spot what the speed limit is without needing actual signs.

But an easy one for starters, it's always 70 or less, wherever you are in the UK.

And don't rely on your sat nav to tell you, I've seen loads of places where it was wrong and once coming up either the A1 or M1, it told me it was 80 .

It was never going to be anything else really.
