Afternoon all,

My stepson has just told me that he's been caught speeding again, making this his second time in around 18 months.

Unfortunately, he didn't learn his lesson from first time round and now has no one to blame but himself. I've saved the lectures as the punishment coming his way will far outweigh anything I can say.

However, I'm a but confused surrounding the new driver law and hope someone may be able to clear it up for me.

He is now facing having his licensed revoked but at what point does this happen. Most websites state that it is automatic but from what point?

Do the DVLA send him a letter asking him to surrender it from a certain date?

Many thanks in advance for any guidance.

Martin

I fear it may take longer than that for my stepson.

He has to reapply to the DVLA for his licence again, book and sit his theory test then book and pass the practical part.

I reckon best part of 6 weeks minimum.
