nikndel 509 Report post Posted October 6, 2014 not sure how much you have to be over limit to get short ban Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted October 6, 2014 30mph over the limit to get a ban. So points and a fine I should think unless there were other circumstances that make it more serious. FWIW I got caught at 88mph in Scotland in 2002. 5 points and £225 fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike 458 Report post Posted October 6, 2014 just looked at a table 4 to 6 points have you had any previous speeding convictions if you don't mind me asking? I wouldn't rely on the tables you find online. They were wrong for me when I got caught speeding. Were you caught via a camera or police car? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
