Hi guys, received a letter this morning from the lease hire company stating that I have a speeding ticket for doing 68 in a 70 in a van. What fine/ points can I expect? First driving offence in 21 years of driving, do you think it will make much difference to my insurance?

3 points and 60 fine... because its less than 70 they MIGHT offer you a speed awareness course..
I got done 72 on a dual carrigeway in a van, 2 years ago now. didnt get offered the course.

i've done the driver awareness scheme course... quite interesting actually. i got it for jumping a red light on a 50cc (not as dangerous as it sounds) i was on the line as it changed to red and it was torrential rain with a massive drain cover in the middle of the road just bad luck there was an unmarked 530 BMW behind me :/

i think you will find they changed the rules a little while ago, its now any van (not sure if pickups included) with a gross weight of 2 tonne+, so an escort 35/55 is car derived but i think a 75 gets cought, i think they had to change it cos basiclly a vw transporter is a passat chassis so technicly car derived, so they said anything over 2 ton is a van type van, anything under 2 ton is car derived, so check the chassis plate to see if GVW is 2000kg +/-
