2 years mate...

i had my license revoked for getting my 6th point around a year and a half into driving so had t do my test etc again..

then you get a fresh 6 points however if you use all these up then you will be banned...

it depends on the situation, you can blag it that your car is esential for your income or sumit and you can drive on the six points but if you go over you get revoked

11 months left!

Why you asking viper? After some serious motoring offences? Hit and runs and what not?

I told them you were too young for GTA but they didn't listen.

just wondering, cos its quicker to get from york to newcastle if i dont do 70 ;)

but until im allowed more than 6 points, that isnt going to happen..

Bah the clocks out by several mph at 70mph (mines out by a whopping 8mph), do 77mph for the fun of it, you were allowed a 10% increase anywho. I heard that was abolished though? :panic:
