    So she is carry 2 children with no seat belts, for which i believe carries 3 points £60 fine each

    for each faulty light carries ???

    and carrying more people than intended ???

    any idea what points/fine she will receive if stopped by the police?

    Seat belt tickets are £60 but don't carry points.

    Each faulty light, well the offence would be no brake lights. The 3rd don't count.

    My guess one ticket £60 and three points for using a vehicle in a dangerous condition.

    £60 per child if issued with a fixed penalty notice. Maximum of £500 per child if it goes to court. No points. (link)

    If she has a crash then clearly the consequences may be a lot worse than a thousand quid fine.

    Police can only ticket for one child.

    Crash, possibly death by dangerous driving= disqualification from driving and a maximum of 14 years in prison.
