I got a speeding ticket today. On the back it says you can do the course if your doing under 64 is there any give or take? Or 100% under.
Cheers
-
afaik the 64mph figure is fixed as it's worked out on a percentage over the speed limit plus a fixed number.
-
I believe the speed awareness course is usually offered at their discretion - so 64mph will be the guideline. I think they look at each case by merit i.e road conditions, traffic etc.
So fingers crossed they might offer it you
EDIT:
Have a look at this forum - http://forums.pepipoo.com/

If they don't you can ring up and ask..?
I missed the deadline to respond on mine so I wasn't offered a course. I rang them to query this and although it was my fault they offered to still let me do the course, but provided i could do it before the deadline.
Mine was easily within the speed threshold however, but even so its worth a call - worst case they say "no" and you're no worse off?

might just have to take the 3 points as of to nz for a year and what have time for it.
do people buy points these days lol.

It's about £75 and its run by the AA.
I had to do one a few weeks ago.
