[ALE 111s]

Caught doing 61 in a 50 on a dual carriageway.....A59 by Bolton Abbey (Skipton - Harrogate)Travelled that road many times and advised that the limit has recently changed.

Gutted, 19 years of driving and now 3 points etc... how much will this affect my insurance ??

Not complaining (honest) just angry with myself

Know the feeling fella, 57 in a 50 right here!
It sucks!!

Cheer up 111s. 3 points is very very common these days. My first 3 made no difference to my policy. (Flux). Just about to find out if the next 3 ups the anti & by how much.

[TIPPER]

Made no difference at all to me.
The girl at the other end of the phone said that most people have a few today. It would seem that the standard 3pts and £60 is being discounted by the insurance cos.

[ALE 111s]

Do I have to tell the insurance now or can I wait until renewal ?

Now

I was told by my insurer that you dont have to declare 3pts to your insurer by law, but you are advised to, to eliminate problems further down the road.

If you are just "rolling over" and taking the 3 points then you deserve them.

I have no points, but what i was trying to say was that by LAW you dont have to declare them to your insurer. I realize that if you choose not to then your insurance becomes invalid.

Tell them. You never know when disaster will strike. Insurance companies never miss an opportunity not to pay out.

Live just up from there, thanks for reminding me , strange one as it goes from 50 to National speed limit just where they put the new Islands. To be honest that bit of road has been lethal with several fatal accidents. This is an obvious one for a bit of Police discretion as it has only just changed, unlucky mate.

111s, sorry to hear your news!

But come on people, if you like to drive enthusiastically,the first 'mod' has got to be a Road Angel or Roadpilot or the like - £ 300.00 for a totally legal warning of fixed cameras and accident blackspots, surely its a no-brainer?
