Getting caught speeding on a CBT

[sandino]

A friend told me that if you commit any offence on a CBT you get banned instantly. Is that true?

No, I do not believe you will be banned instantly. If you get over 6 points then you will be. If you've been caught speeding, you just got ot look forward to stupidly high insurance for a few more years

I doubt that's true. You'll quite often find people doing their CBT commiting offences, speeding or dangerous riding. But that's because they're just learning to ride. Can't really expect everyone to be able to follow the law during the CBT. They eitehr don't know it or just use full throttle and then panick.

I know when I took my CBT there was sometimes when I was over the limit and didn't notice. I was just told over the earpiece to slow down to 30/40. And I would doubt if a copper pulled you over when there's a riding instructor behind you.

Unless you decide to steal the bike and plan to get away?

It is a ban, on the spot. They will also call a surgeon who will cut your bollocks off and a chief who will cook them and make you and your instructor eat one each.

Well, that is all good to know, but i dont mean when doing the actual CBT course, i mean on a CBT certificate. Is it still not true that you get banned? Because to be honest, i speed all the time, the sort of 32-33 through a 30 zone kind of thing, sometimes 40 when i dont notice.

I think sandino means by CBT, is riding on his bike but he's only got a Provisional license. Not actually getting caught speeding whilst doing his CBT test.

During my CBT, my instructor actually encouraged me to speed. My original moped was taken back to the centre when I went over a nail, and they gave me the only other one they had - a modified, souped up one which was capable of 60, or so they told me. It was certainly derestricted anyway, and was bored out to a 70. So they sent me out on this and we enter a 40. I'm trying desperately to keep to 30 miles an hour, knowing I'm legally not allowed to go faster than this, and the instructor pipes up with 'Come on, give it the beans!' He was riding a Super Blackbird, so I can't really blame him.

My instructor rode some new Triumph touring model, big bike.
