Got the conditional offer today for the speeding fine. Bastard.
3 points and £60 fine.
As a result I now cannot pass my motorbike test that I was planning on doing next year, as I will automatically be reverted back to a provisional license. New law for new riders states that if you get 6 points on your license within the first two years you will automatically be reverted to a learner again. However, these 6 points include any that are already on your license before you pass your bike test.
Strangely though, part of the law says that you cannot be penalised twice for the same crime.
I get fined and penalty points on my license, but if I pass my bike test within the next three years, I will be penalised for a crime I have already committed and been punished for.
I will now begin protesting by targeting mobile and fixed cameras in my own unique way. Omlette anyone?
