I don't know if I should either a: lose my licence for 3 months or b: go on a probabtionary for 1yrone year does seem like a long time with 2 points its kind of scary, I need to drive for work but 2 points for a year . and also I heard the demerit points come off imediatly and not when u pay. if that is true does that mean its the same for camera offences, because a mate of mine went threw a red light camera in my car about 6 weeks ago so the fine will come to me first and wont that mean I lose points until it gets reprocessed under his name. anyway if anyone has any info to my camera dilema im all ears!

I would have thought that they temporarily belonged to the car and then end up against the actual driver's licence, but back-dated to the day of the infringementall the best Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/8362-3-months-of-a-probationary/#findComment-79518 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You watch, the next time I drive, I'll get done. Now I've done it.

That way when you are asked " have you been disqualified from driving" you can say no. Lesson learned 20 years ago......might also affect your insurance later mate.

curious Member 504 Member For: 21y 6m 7d Location: sun, beach and plenty of T T's Posted 06/01/04 10:40 AM Share Posted 06/01/04 10:40 AM A mate of mines dad took the three month option. He is 55 and drives a new fairmont so is never pulled over except for an infringement. HE drove as per normal on the suspention and got away with it.I would not recommend it in a turbo as it does turn the head. Actually I would not recommend it full stop, different strokes for different folks.The points will be taken on payment of the TIN as the doc explained Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/8362-3-months-of-a-probationary/#findComment-79576 Share on other sites More sharing options...
