We call them "centre managers" here at toyota, but yes, I do love a good one, they help pay for me to fund my cars, lol

Ok, just checking. I would consider it pretty harsh if you lost your job over a 28 day ban, as if they play it by the book they would have to give you 4 weeks contractual notice anyway!! Unless a driving ban is stipulated under the gross misconduct section of your contract in which case they could dismiss without notice......

I think you did well there ,if all goes ok with your job its worth sticking to the speed limit in the future as they wont let you off so lighty again ,trust me a ban slows you down

Maria.

Spiky - errrr thanks for that! i genuinely didnt know!

Nicole - good point, i need to go look at my handbook!

Twins - it certainly does, ive already slowed right down...

I find you can either laugh or cry in life. To make someone smile is one of the best gifts you can give to a person.

Maria.

So very very true!

Dangerous Malcolm..

A better outcome than you were expecting so nice one. Unfortnately public transport [Maria mode] sucks donkey dick [/Maria mode] so you're gonna have a fun month.

THats a decent result, nice grovelling

Nah, they're the same as points. They stay on for 4 and are 'active' for 3. (10 is for drink/drugs related stuff). Even a year ban for Dangerous Driving only stays on for 4. The amount your insurance is affected depends on who you're insured with - but I guarantee there is NO insurer who wouldn't increase your policy for getting a ban though.

silly question will you get your licencse back or will you have to take a test again . if you get disquallified from driving in your car would you loose your bike licence aswell . sorry if i sound stupid i honestly dont know

DanW@FastFord

Only if you get banned and asked to take a restest - That's normally reserved for proper naughty stuff, and not for speeding. When you do have to take a retest it's always an extended one (1 hour) plus the theory test too!

When you get banned you can't drive a car, nor bike, nor anything with an engine. And nor can you steer a car with the engine off, nor even push a broken down car! Seriously!!

FIESTA CHRIS H

thanks

FIESTA CHRIS H

if you get points in a car do they go on your bike license. i suspect they do going by dans answer

Yup - Your license is your license!

fuzzy

yes. ban stays on your license for 4 years. in my unruly youth i was banned for 4 years and when i got my license back it came back clean with no endorsments printed.usually insurers take into accountany previous convictions over the last 5 years.

coco16i

My insurance was £2 away from being exactly double what it was the previous year after my last ban !!!!!!!!!!!!! ( talking from ban experience here as have had 3 of the cunts over the years !! )

And my licence was clean before it, ban was for doing 111mph !!

AlexF

Shitty luck Maria... bloody lieing copper!

DP is dealer principle in nearly every motoring marque! lol

neilm

Good Luck Maria, I got banned for 7 days for doing 102mph on the M1 years ago and it was a blimmin nightmare, my girlfriend had to take me and collect me from work, I couldnt go anywhere on my own, had to get lifts everywhere, how these people who get done for Drink Drive cope with being banned for a year or more I dont know.

Best thing you can do is get Porkchop to throw a mega sickie and take in a nice holiday on a beach.

Alternatively, hire a little polish girl to drive you around

OR

Stay at home doing Cold Calling & Lead Generation for when you can get back into the office.

although its not as bad as you expected, it's still shit really ... If I ever find myself in the situation again of having ANY grounds to fight, I will, and pay for a fucking shit hot breif..... Lying coppers are so common it's sad, you would have got less of a fine for assulting an OAP and stealing their pension , or selling drugs ... Country is run by cunts for cunts

Maria.

Leeeroy - it sucks donkey cock indeed!!!

Paul - i didnt grovel.... much!! Honestly id didnt, i just cried and cried and cried!

Neil - I may well suggest the sitting at home malarky! Good thinking batman!

RWD - i agree with you completely, its a farce, and tot hink that just because these people wear blue suits they can get away with saying what they like! Unfortunatelt for me, the copper had gone down every single route to make sure everything he had said and done was backed up one way or another! He could of just picked a random figure out of the air and i would of been charged for it!
