I got my points on my driving licence 3 years ago,

Question

back then the time to remove your points was 3 years but the rule was changed recently to 4 years, do I still apply to the old rules or do I have to wait for another year to get it off, anyone to contact ?

Answer 1

There are spent after 3 years but can't be removed until 4 years.

Answer 2

The rules have not changed in the last 25 years. The points are active for 3 years from the date of conviction the points remain on your licence for 4 years so that in the event of another conviction the court can see what points were active at the time of the offence.

Answer 3

It has been 4 yrs for at least 10 yrs that i know of.Also you must still tell the insurance companies up to 5 yrs when they ask.

Answer 4

hey thanks for answering my question about music list , my msn is [e-mail]

Answer 5

I've been driving since 1982.

The 3 year active / 4 year removal rule has been in effect for all that time.

I've no idea where you've got your information from, but it's wrong.

Answer 6

You can contact the DVLA and I should think they could tell you but I suspect that you will stay on the 3 year rule.

Answer 7

they dont count toward totting up after 3 years, but you cant have them removed until 4 years.

Also, the UK call it a driving licence, the US call it a driver's licence, so you can tell where people are from by what they call it!

Answer 8

where r u from as it various from america to United Kingdom

Answer 9

contact the DVLA i think it'll be 3 years for you though

Answer 10

srry idk wat ur saying

Answer 11

Afraid you're wrong, the rule hasn't been changed recently. Points count towards "totting-up" for 3 years but cannot be removed until 4 years.  Some, I might add, count for 10 years and cannot be removed for 11 years.
