Only ever had a single 3 - entrapped by an unmarked Police car into a "race" because of what I was driving at the time (long story, but the coppper said I had done nothing dangerous so just gave me the SP30) - but those 3 are long expired.
I have been a lot more conscious of who might be in any car following me too close since then....

Shropshire.

no excuses for having points on your licence (for speeding), plenty of places to go fast legally. For the record i have zero.

Sold the turbo and seeing what the C20XE can do!

Near Lincoln

3 *smiley* but now non. got done on a road i had driven on all my life that they had changed the speed limit on (dual carriageway, going through open countryside) that they changed to 50. Got caught a few months later as i accelerated past a car doing 40 doing 65.
Fair cop i guess but the 50 limit is just ridiculous.
The only reason it was changed was due to a spate of bike accidents, but that was on the roundabout at the end. The had a game:

There was 2 roundabouts after this dual carriageway linked with another short bit of dual carriageway.
They would go past a car on the first round about, go round the second, back to the first and try and overtake the same car before it got to the second roundabout. (i.e. do a full "lap" before the car had done half.
Safe to say a couple of people came off!

Although I agree there are no excuses, people will make mistakes and you're unlucky if you get caught in that instance. I also have none :).

Ah yes I was going to comment on this too. It's not quite fair to tar all people with points with the same brush. Sadly, revenue cameras can't distinguish between "whoops hold on I'm speeding a bit..." and "here lets give this thing a rip".

So if I was in power, I would re-define the codes like this:

SCIC Speeding Chav in a Corsa, 6 points
TPB Tailgating prick in BMW, 6 points
WVM White van man, 3 points

Something like that anyway.
