Re: When can you get Rid of Penalty Points?

So just say for example, you have 3 penalty point and you get rid of them after 4 years and you get 11 penalty point for something; as their is no trace back of previous convictions = no ban (11+3), yes?

Re: When can you get Rid of Penalty Points?

Car Insurers ask if you have had any convictions in the last five years (for motoring offences).

I had points a while back, so I wanted to know when mine run out and looked online and found the above site.

It made my day as well

The 3 that are 'spent' wouldn't count towards the new 11.
It's different if you are a new driver though.

Will DSA send her a letter to remind her that she can get rid of the points?

Thanks
4 years from the date of offence, I've just had 3 points took off.
