driving licence

scooba0010 · 10-14-2009, 01:02 PM

Hi, ok weird one A guy at work has 2 sp30s then got caught with no insurance (cant) ,received a summons and with the totting up 6 points for no insurance came out with a 3 month ban and £485 fine,the car was crushed as well.

Now the three months is up and he has to re apply for his licence another £65 ?

what will his licence show on it as at work now there is a policy of 9 points you dont get to use the company fleet .

He rekons it will show just the two sp30s and the 6 points that caused the ban are now removed as the ban is now served .

I think im sure he will have 12 points showing on his licence and will say something like banned from august 09 to oct 09

I am happy to be wrong but no one seams to know and am sick to death of the arguments does anyone know 100%

TIA

Disqualification as a result of a totting-up of 12 points on a licence results in a TT99 code and this stays on the licence for a period of four years from date of conviction.

I am 99.9% sure that the application for a new driving licence will result in a clean licence with no points, but the TT99 code will remain.
And yes, he needs to pay for a new licence.

I was banned due to totting up 13 points some years ago. My licence was returned with no points but clearly showed a ban code. I can't remember the code but TT99 sounds familiar. But with this code it was impossible (without mega £££) to be insured on my wifes Smart car policy and caused several issues with company car insurance.

Essentially the ban is rated as worse than 9 points so likely to have company car issues.

I have also had a 'no insurance' issue on my licence since the ban. Insurance companies hate this one like the plague as well !!! Again couldn't get good prices to be insured with my wife's Smart.

The prognosis doesn't look good for your mate.

Thanks guys. Serves him right as he choose to have no insurance ,

Why do they give these people their licence back? If he's been prepared to drive without insurance once, he'll do it again, especially as it'll now be expensive to get.

£485 was not enough as a fine, he could have paid more than that for insurance. Low fines don't work as a deterant, its worth the gamble not to get caught! They should put a minimum, large fine (say £5k) and its prison if you can't pay it.

There are knobs who deliberately drive uninsured who should be crushed along with the car. Then there are knobs like me who thought I was covered on my insurance, and my mates insurance covered me to drive his car. He was ill and too tired to continue driving. After being stopped by the Rozzers as they believed the car was uninsured we found out the car was but I wasn't !!! Absolute genuine mistake on both parts. 6 points and £170 fine later. Insurance companies then avoid you like the plague as they believe you are a fraudster and only marginally better than the cretins who drink drive.
