Jesus! Thats pricey! I got banned last year for 6 months, im 23, 3 points, 3 yrs ncd and a few minor accidents all of which cost nothing, my renewal last year was 564 quid, third party only!

Renewal this year was 274 quid, so it basically halved! But the 3 points expired this year and one of the accidents i had happened 5 years ago. Just cant wait till i leave uni, providing nothing silly happens, when i leave ill have a completely clean licence!

i got baned for two years and orded to retake my test,and no it wasnt for drink driving it was for doing 158mph on a new road they had just built.it was at 1.30 in the morning so i thought i would have a bit of fun as the roads was empty or so i thought. ive never had a speeding ticket in my life but they saw fit to make me an example and ban me for two years

Crikey mate, thats just bad luck! i got caught once for speeding by a camera, 54 in a 30. But did i learn my lesson? Nope, two years later through the same camera but this time at 70

How fucking stupid did i feel??

Luckily i dnt have to retake test, funny thing was i was 'disqualified' for 6 months, how does 6 months not riding a bike re-qualify me?
