Not a bad result mate (as I mentioned on Facebook). The relief from knowing the outcome must be great.

Sounds like the best result fella, your approach to this and humility was obviously noted, resulted in this outcome.  

Hope your still driving like Miss Daisy!  :evilgrin:

Yeh they actually stick you on for dangerous driving if you exceed the limit by loads - something that will never happen in england/wales!

To anyone outside who's reading this, where not all irresponsible GTI owners celebrating a lower than normal penalty for exceeding the speed limit! The court has realised an honest mistake and dealt with the OP as such, as opposed to the a serial speeder/person who doesn't care! That is why it's a good result.

So, when the points expire, will all four points come off or is it still three points off at a time? Would be a bit daft for any insurance increase if you only had one penalty point?

I don't know, I've never had more than 3 before  :confused:

Do they normally only take 3 off at a time? If so, when would the second lot come off?
