I have lost 2 points (on a double demerit weekend as well.. and that was cause a certain girl only left 45 mins to get from Ryde to the airport.Anhow I digress, 12 points is heaps if you drive safely and senseibly all the time.The 12 gives you lots of headroom for those occasional mistakes.I think its fair.. I just don't like the double demerit points for us guys who drive a lot.my 2 cents worth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ducatijb Lifetime Members 3,448 Member For: 21y 9m 18d Gender: Male Location: sydney Posted 10/09/04 12:47 PM Share Posted 10/09/04 12:47 PM Over the years I've also lost my licence a couple of times and am often driving on no points, like right now. So in the eyes of most I suppose I'm a bad driver. So be it, I can live with that. So save your breath (fingers) and don't bother flaming me you damn do-gooders 'cos I've been hearing it for years and it's like water off a duck's back to me now.

Benny Member 1,869 Member For: 21y 5m 15d Gender: Male Location: Newcastle Posted 10/09/04 11:46 PM Share Posted 10/09/04 11:46 PM Having only twelve points I don't think bothers me too much but the thought of being booked for say 15-30km/h over the limit (3 points) twice within three years and both within a double demerit point time will encure a licence suspension. that's a total loss of twelve points in only two bookings and then having to tell your insurance comany that yes I have had my licence suspended. As you can see I'm not a firm believer in the double demerit point system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
