Revocation / Suspension of a Driving Licence


Recommended Posts

i was going 34 and 35 on 30 speed limit. got cought on the same camera within 2 weeks. and it was a work vehicle. not my own car. :(

 

so...

 

you were still speeding

 

you chose to break the limit and so you should be man (or woman) enough to take the consequences.

 

and if you are dumb enough to get caught by the same camera then you really do deserve all you get.

it sounds as though the actual offences took place within your first 2 years of passing your test.

 

The whereabouts of the camera's and the vehicle you were driving are irrelevent (other than to suggest it was a bit silly driving past a known speed camera over the legal speed limit twice)

it counts from the date of the offence

Save yourself a phonecall.

You're license has been revoked.

 

 

If you are absolutely sure of what the Judge's intentions were, you could appeal and ask for a short disqualification instead of the points.

 

The revocation can be postponed pending outcome of appeal.
