which could increase the cost of car insurance by around 25 per cent.

Hmm.. car insurance up to 160 quid? Wont kill me.. :smt012

More concerned about the fine and points.

So that would mean if i got stopped once more i'd be banned.

Self employed so I couldnt drive to jobs

So i'd be forced to pack in and live a life of luxury on the dole, or they can supply me a chauffeur. Sounds like a plan

edit: doh fell for it and bit. Its viral advertising for shithouse insurers confused.cocks , like anyone gives a shit what they think :smt003

Relaxed about it with the possible exception of the motorway. What I dot understand is why they dont give magistrates the freedom to decide penalties dependant on circumstances. For example 40 in a 30 zone past a school is a very different issue out of term time or at 3am. Ditto doing 90 on the M50 near us and doing it on the crowded M25 .

P.S. And there ought to be far more severe penalties for aggressive young women in 3 door hatches who havent got a clue about vehicle dynamics, skid control etc.
