    I got 6 points & ?355 fine for 60mph in a 30 zone.

    So i would of thought you will get worse. I had to retake test & theory but that was only cuz i had not been driving over 2 years to have the full 12 points.

    I feel for you mate cuz i've been there.

    Just gotta learn from your mistakes and drive sensibly. Oh yeah, your insurance will increase dramatically.

    Mine went up by about ?350. But that was acouple of years back now so its come back down slightly.

    Chin up.

    Ok so 70 in a 30 is very bad & he'll learn from his mistakes (hopefully)

    But everyone speeds at some point, its just a matter of if you get caught or not.

    Speeding is speeding, weather its 34 in a 30 or 100. Its still wrong.

    I agree with Jules. Why were you doing 70mph in a 30mph limit? Were you in THAT much of a hurry?

    Don't know how people can say he's been unlucky. He's been lucky that he didnt kill someone :!:

    hmmmm if its in your 1st 2 years m8, dont u have to take a extended test, if u passed more then 2 yrs ago, u will only get a normal test. Shame that, but theres only 1 person to blame, i agree with wots sed above.
