    Well it's over now TW, that's the important bit.

      The waiting time to take the test will probably be longer than the ban

        Buts it's not a sliding scale. A couple of days for almost killing someone. Don't be ridiculous! Seriously Sounds like she shouldn't be driving at all.

          And you've never sped, like me?

            Saw some miscreants (or 'prisoners' as they were referred to) being done too. One chap said nothing except bulltulip and f-off. Says he is going to represent himself. They were also some prisoners in the observers gallery and they were cracking some brilliant jokes.

              Being in prison showers apparently sharpens humour nicely

                Yep. I got 6 points and a plus £350 fine for slightly less and once got a 12 month ban for D/D which consisted of being 3% over the limit (ie 2 pints) which is less than your old mum.

                Should have jailed her!

                  Bring back hanging!

                  And send her back to her own country!







                  Sorry, I thought I was on the Daily Mail website for a minute there.

                    I've only had 3 points for alleged speeding once - I was too poor to hire a smart lawyer to prove it wasn't speeding, wasn't in that area and wasn't me in the first place

                      I think old people should display O plates.
