My apologies in your case, I didn't know about your dyslexia - but the general standard of English amongst youngsters is extremely poor mo.

Sounds like he's probably right. I've lost count of the number of times a police officer said that to me when I was 17 - 18...

Wait and see what comes through your door and keep your nose clean for a while. If you're that worried go to Citizens advice and see if they can point you in the right direction as to what might happen or get some proper legal advice from a solicitor... but I'd just keep my fingers crossed for now TBH.

Cops were a bit harsh IMO. Probably just trying to warn you off because you're a young driver.
It'll probably all blow over.
Try not to worry petal

I wondered if you were dyslexic, you write like my 15 year old daughter, she's getting better too, so hang in there.

Be polite to the police, but tbh I wonder if they have picked on you because you are young maybe, so would maybe be worth following up. I hope it works out for you, take care.

From the nature of your post, I'm going to make a huge assumption here and say that you lack maturity. If you've got a job that required a clean license, then you might want to take better care of it. I know this isn't what you want to hear, but take whatever punishment you're given on the chin, learn the lesson, and take a bit more responsiblity for yourself in future.
That's pretty harsh.

Sounds pretty harsh to me, given the limit was/is 50mph. Fingers crossed nothing further materialises mate.

TJ - read this very carefully as, IMHO, it looks like they shouldn't have seized your vehicle. I'm assuming that you hadn't been warned previously, of course.

(b) it appears to him that the use has continued or been repeated after the the warning.
Needs to be read in conjunction with with s5 underneath.

Remember this if you get summonsed

Please don't stereotype, we all aren't like that.
