How many have a license of virginal cleanliness?
I have had my license for six and a half years and have so far collected no points, nor have I ever been pulled over by the police. I thought this pretty normal but having a chat with some friends it would seem not so.
And I am quite an enthusiastic driver, one could say a real petrol head who loves nothing better than spinning the V6 round to 6000 rpm.
Clearly it's quite possible to love cars, drive enthusiastically and still remain within the rules...
So I was wondering how many others have kept it clean?

Sorry, I've just read that back and I'm afraid I sound like a right smarmy ba$tard. I didn't mean it to come out like that...
But I am interested in how many people who don't drive like their training to pilot the Popemobile have a completely blemish free license?
Also, no accidents. And yes, I am touching wood as I write this, really don't want to tempt fate.0 -
Have been driving for 5 years, pulled twice but never had any points... Definitely not popemobile material though!0

If you are going to start a thread about them, at least learn when to use a C or an S.

Note! The picture above was nicked off Google images and is not my licence.

30 years, no points, I think I was stopped about 30 years ago for driving without a back box, well it was on the car, just not actually attached to the rest of the exhaust. (the policeman said, if it had just happened, he'd let me go if I promised to get it fixed!), no accidents.
SD1 that did 138mph, and got the mpg into single figures, Fiat twin cam that wasn't quite as fast as well. Present car I drive like I stole.0 -

Balls! I blame the sods who shut the grammar schools...
The S is only used when applied to the verb 'to license' but I am in possession of the noun 'a licence'. I only recall having one lesson in secondary school that covered grammar (and I still got a B at GCSE) - oh the continuing failure of the state school system. One has to ask, when will we learn... ;->0
