I agree totally, but I have a caveat - ban the grannies, and Sunday drivers - for life - that have 3 mile tail-backs in a 50 zone - doing 30 (believing that they are safe drivers - but causing head-ons from people trying to adhere to the safe driving speed indicated on sign-posts).
I know so many crazies: gripping their steering wheel, their backs away from their seats - hunched in terror - when they go above 20mph - unbelievable lack of confidence / driving skill - ban 'em forever!

Now THAT would stop a lot of speeders (cos they wouldn't be delayed by these brain-dead) ;-)

The person you are quoting posted that in October 2010 and hasn't been here since October 2011.

Your insurance reflects your risk; and you have to admit someone with a speeding ban is a much higher risk than someone with a clean license.

Hardly.. I can't really deny that I travel "within the conditions" rather than the set limits, everyone makes progress and in 8 years of motoring I'm yet to pickup a speeding ticket, or anything related to dangerous/inconsiderate driving.

There's more to be said for hazard perception, than what you let yourself get caught doing and recorded on your licence. :think:

I'm not sure what you are actually asking.

Is this about insurance cover, or about prosecution for no insurance?

If the latter, I suggest you post here for advice;-

Perhaps the insurer could appoint an assessor to undertake a 6 month audit on your driving abilities.
