Just got a "Notice of Intended Prosecution" 46 in a 30 zone, Must have been a mobile camera, didnt see anything... By the way I think the bit where got caught is a stupid bit of 30 mph dual carriageway...Sad

What sort of fine/points is this?

(Also I was in my car, not on the bike - which is as just as well!)

Only one lisence so the points will be accountable for both bike and car.

I appreciate that, it's just when I saw the letter I was shitting it that it was sometime on the bike (high % of a ban! - must slow down Neutral )

Tpo tip - Contact DVLA, tell them you've lost your licence, ask for another copy to be issued. Think it costs £17.

You'll have one with 3pts on

And a clean one Wink

When I told my insurance company, they said thanks, and thats it. As long as its a SP30, it means nothing, just remember to slow down next time.

+3 points £60 fine

Manchester doesn't seem to have a course option ie £120 day long course for suspended
points, nor does mancs have an insurance reducing bike safe.

you were +16 = points + fine

+30 over limit = ban.

A tip for mobile cameras is that the MEN/Burytimes [your area]times has a listing of where
mobile cameras will be placed way in advance. This is highly useful , as you may recall the
NYTT ride there was a camera car hidden behind a bush had we gone the other direction
10 sets of +3 points.

In case your job requires you to have a clean licence, in case you need a clean licence to hire a car, in case you do not wish to notify your insurance company of your points, in case you get further points and wish to show a clean licence to the courts, in case you need a clean licence for test rides.

Shall I go on? Rolling Eyes

Trouble is mate, you would be voiding your insurance in the event of an accident. In other words, you wouldn't be insured.

It might be useful as a backup, but I don't think I'll go up that route Smile
On the other hand if you know a decent hacker... Wink
