I just noticed - I never said what I have got! 3 points - SP50 on the M4 for doing 61mph in a 70 limit. They reckoned the limit was 50 and as I don't carry a video camera in the car, I was screwed. Got them in October 2005 and the points can be removed from my licence in a few months
Think they are technically spent though, although the insurance companies would argue differently.
It's interesting that people state they intend to keep a clean licence - I personally think that to do this, it's more of a case of luck rather than judgement. I heard that more people have points than not these days.
