About 2 years ago i had 9 points. I got 2x3 for speeding ( 45mph in 40mph zone & 67mph in 50 zone blushing ). The other 3 points i recieved for jumping a red traffic light.

Fortunately license has been clean for past 18 months yay

I've never had any.

The Gardaí take one look at my car and decide that their gizmo must be broken... my car couldn't possibly do that speed laugh

In truth... I'm a bit of a needle watcher. I do go fast, just not too fast. I have a bluetooth thingy for the phone and always have passengers belted. I wont move off without belts on.

Did you get caught while on the phone?

That's just awful bad timing for most people. They get caught on the very rare occasion that the phone actually rings while they're in the car comfort

Yeah i got two points for speeding in Fermoy, County Cork in 2004. I was doing 50 in a 30mph hour zone (that was back when it was in miles instead of kilometres). I had to pay an €80 fine but my licence has been clean for the last four years. I learned my lesson after that one.

I have none and I drive about 700 miles a week, I know where all the speed cameras are and all I do is slow down under the limit when I pass them, works for me
