    Unusually lenient chap. Should be 4 points for each offence.

    I've never had points. Took a speed awareness course after getting caught by a mobile van doing 36 in a 30.

      Been stopped 3 times ever.

      Once was when I had a new car and the acceleration was nothing like my old one which lead to me cutting someone up quite badly. They flashed their lights, I rolled my eyes and kept driving. They flashed their blue lights, I pulled over and got shouted at by a police woman for a few minutes,

      Once was a new car which had an illegally shaped number plate. They wrote me a ticket and asked me to sort it out.

      Once was by the German police and almost resulted in me getting shot. I was coming back from a re-enactment show in Tabor and had the group kit which included axes, swords etc. They pulled me over and asked if I had any drugs, alcohol etc. in the car. Then they asked if I had any weapons. I said "Yes but they - " I never got the chance to finish my sentence as he jumped back, reached for his hip and demanded that I got out of the vehicle. It all got sorted out soon enough but it was tense for a few minutes,

        I bribed him with a new flat cap. Or was it a cat flap?

              If we are talking about getting stopped, I was caught speeding by MOD police in RAE Farnborough and banned from there. Another time in Aldershot some car was really close to me when I was doing 29mph in a 30mph zone. I touched the throttle just to get some space. They were MOD police and they pulled me over. When I pointed this out they let me go.

              Been shouted at the police a few times too. Ejected from a few places by police.

                  Phew. So many white as snow do-gooders on here I thought it was just me that had a raft of close shaves as well as the points. Endless warnings for things like getting my knee down around a roundabout in Brighouse and then pulling a wheelie up the sliproad, having 5 people in the back of my Cortina coming back from the Frontier at 4am in the morning, doing a 'superman' on a two stroke moped downhill to see if I could hit 40 and so on and so on.

                  Boy was I a dick back then.

                    Can I be first in the queue with the predictable insults?
