Foreign Licence Holder UK Ban

[AdamS]

Can yuo be banned from driving in the UK if you hold a foreign licence? I.e. a US businessman who regularly travels to the UK and clocks up 12 points can he be banned from driving here when he has no licence to endorse?

Yes, the DVLA create a notional licence to which points are added.
However, since anyone living abroad is unlikely to receive any paperwork for prosecution in view of the fact that there will probably be no income from it, it's very unlikely that a ban would evolve through totting-up.
If it was a single offence for a very high speed and the offender was actually stopped at the time, that's a different matter.
