Better still for some fines you are forced, or can opt (as opposed to larger fine) to go on a speed awareness course.
After all the point is to make people drive safely, not make money for the state.
- sago 12y agoExcept that you have to pay for the course. And the cost is the same as the ticket. The only difference is you don't get the endorsements on your license.
- RobAley 12y agoAnd this saves you a lot more money than the fine on your Insurance premiums not increasing.
- sago 12y agoI guess so. I've only had 3 points and it didn't make a difference to my premiums. I guess if you get more it might though. I'd probably take the first 3 if I got caught speeding again. Four hours taking the course would be a world more hassle.
- RobAley 12y agoOr you could, at a push, simply not speed? That way you won't get caught and won't need to deal with points, courses, fines and the like. Just a thought.
- sago 12y agoIndeed. It isn't always so simple. I'd prefer to always drive 100% perfectly with 100% awareness of speed, speed limits, road conditions, and so on. Unfortunately I err from time to time. Hence the 'if' in my statement.
