Points deduction system for drivers

[Inderpland]

Anyone know if or when this might/will be implemented?

[The Word]

It's in effect already.

[Inderpland]

I've tried searching but can't find a description of how it works. Would anybody happen to have a link to this?

 

I did manage to find something after all.

Unfortunately, you can’t go by a newspaper article to determine whether something is law. The first sentence of the piece says ‘tentative’. Look it up...

It will not have much effect.  You will just be given the chance to pay up front to avoid getting points.

I got a speeding ticket from a camera and they went after my mother in law because she is the owner of the truck. I got nothing and she got the points even though she doesn't even have a license.

And the driving license app I had on my phone has stopped working.

So now I can drive rat-arsed three times before I get banned for 90 days, then Do it Again.

But when something really has been enacted in law, you can go by that.  The system is in effect.

"...do you have to wait and lose the lot to get back to 12 ?"

That is what happens.

I appreciated the reply but for such an important issue I would like to have the information verified by different sources.

You do understand that, right?

So what you are saying is there is a real point system in action? You are the first one I have heard of something happening. and on the other end I had stated on the forum that they will get the wrong ones and it is all just a big scam and joke.
