Number of Points on a Provisional Liscence

As you can probably tell from the title I was just wondering how many points can you have on a provisional licence as I have heard people say that you have 12 but I thought you only had 6.

12 points on any type as a rule, but if the following is true,

(Provisinal Licence is also limited to 12 points.)

First full licence (car or bike) no more than 6 points in two years or it's revoked and you have to do it all over again.

If you have a full licence for a car or bike and you passed over two years ago, then you have a total of 12 to use up (unless you have points already), if you add the bike / car CAT, it does not affect your licence with a two year limit of 6 points, you still have 12 points to use up if you want to be stupid, best keep it clean I say.

Cheers for that so just to clarify I can have up to 12 points on my CBT but when I pass my test I will only be able to have up to 6 for two years and I don't plan on doing anything stupid anymore.

If you have got 12 points your insurance must be through the roof. Shocked

if you have 12pnts, then your licence is revoked so you will not need insurance!

What is meant by 12 pnts allowance is you may have up to 12! not 12, because then you will get banned!

If you have held a full licence for 2 years and then manage to get 12 points you still do not instantly have a ban. You will be summoned to court and if you can provide them with a good reason you may find that you can keep it with the new points as well(but probably not)
