«Breaking News» Driver with 60 points on their licence is STILL not banned from driving

A driver caught speeding 19 times is still not banned from the road.

Despite racking up an astonishing 60 penalty points on their driving licence, it has yet to be revoked.

That means the unnamed offender drives around perfectly legally, even after exceeding the statutory speed limit on a public road so many times.

In another case, a motorist has amassed 54 points and has also still not been disqualified.

The figures were obtained by the Daily Mail under the Freedom of Information Act. 

The two drivers are among thousands who have 12 or more points on their licence, which would usually result in them instantly losing it.

But magistrates are entitled to use discretion to allow an offender to stay on the road if they believe it would cause ‘exceptional hardship’ to remove their licence.

The worst was the driver with 60 points, then the one with 54 points. A further two drivers have been allowed to keep their licences despite having 48 points. 

The figures were obtained by the Daily Mail under the Freedom of Information Act

Some 66 drivers have 21 points, there are 337 with 18 points, 1,138 with 15 points, and 7,377 who have exactly 12 points of their licence. None of the offenders are named.

Brake, a pressure group that campaigns against speeding, said: ‘It is disgraceful that so many drivers are still on our roads, despite having accumulated 12 points or more on their licence.

‘The Government and courts are complicit in dangerous drivers remaining on our roads through continuing to permit the exploitation of loopholes in our road traffic laws – this is unacceptable and must change.’

Brake is calling for an urgent review of the ‘exceptional hardship’ discretion that magistrates have, adding: ‘Driving is a privilege, not a right.’

There were 1,730 people killed and 22,144 people seriously injured on the road in the UK in 2015, the most recent figures available. 

There is no strict definition for exceptional hardship, which is argued on a case-by-case basis in court.

It could cover caring for a child who would otherwise be unable to go to school or a sick relative who relies on someone to drive them around.

John Bache, of the Magistrates’ Association, said: ‘The process for establishing exceptional hardship is robust – magistrates scrutinise every case very carefully.’

 

Link hienalouca.com Interesting to note Looking for an investor or sponsor for a project to grow dinosaurs and relict plants. Requires the sum of investments from 400000$ to 900000$. The exact amount can not say because there are many nuances. It will be necessary to build a small laboratory with certain parameters. To all interested persons please write on an email angocman@gmail.com . It is the scientific project and I do not know whether it is possible to earn on it. The probability of success of the project is approximately 60%. That will be very interesting.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
