I allowed my girlfriend to drive my car with a provisional licence
1. I have a full licence and I permitted my girl friend who as provisional licence drove the car,its an offence? Can I get points on my licence? how many point?
2.I have 3 points already on my licence before I pass the practical test,I passed test on 21.10.08 mean I haven't reach 2yrs yet,if I get 3 point again, will I disqualify?
Sorry it's not good news I'm afraid.
I assume that you were stopped by the police? Were you warned that you were going to get a court summons?
You are at risk of permitting her to drive without insurance and not in accordance with her licence. You are not qualified to supervise and I assume she didn't have L plates?
These offences would carry 6-8 points for you. This means that your licence will be revoked under the new drivers act and you will have to do a full retest.
I may be able to help you avoid that if we can persuade the court to give you a short discretionary ban rather than the points....
Your girlfriend is at risk of 6-8 points for driving without insurance and not in accordance with a licence Im afraid.
She will be able to take her test but her licence will have at least 6 points on it from the start. If she gets any more points during her probationary period she will have her licence revoked too.
