By 'avoided' do you mean you said "look a Herring!" whilst pointing behind the officer(s) and tehen scampering away? Only thing is the police these days seem less and less interested in Herrings. :(

SP30, 3 points & £60 fine. Can't remember what it was for at the moment.
TS20, 3 points & £90 fine. Followed by a livered up pan down a decent run, both of us over the speed limit, I crossed the white line so he did me for that and my then small plate.

As above, I ride with little thought to the legality of it all.

6 points and £340 for 'undertermined speed' (police's words) I overtook a line of 4 cars which were all sitting at 50 mph. The leading car was an unmarked cop car. I didn't even know they were chasing me til I got the summons a few days later.

3 points for overtaking another unmarked BMW a month later and crossing the double whites/ hatchings.

3 points in my works transit van for 80mph on the dual carriageway. Should've been 60 :roll:

The last three resulted in a 6 month ban under the totting-up procedure. The rubbish thing is people assume you're a drink driver when they hear of your ban. I wasn't prepared for that aspect of it.

SP30, 3 points £60 fine - 61 in a 50, in the car. Dual carriageway with nobody else on it. It's so damn arbitrary and capricious.

They finish in January, come off the following January.
