Two speeding tickets in one day

brad259

Hi everyone, new to the forum but i feel this is the best place for me to come to. Hopefully I get mature answers, but basically i got caught speeding twice! in the same spot I'm 18 years old and have a black box. i was going 36 whilst braking from a 60mph zone and going 38mph going accelerating a little too fast before the 60mph zone. So what are my chances of getting a speed awareness course for one of the offences? I cant loose my licence other wise I loose my job and would be horrible.
Many thanks

Good chance you'll get a course for one and points for the other.

Don't worry you won't loose anything.

Hopefully so, I spoke to a police officer the day I got the two tickets and he said you've got a good chance of getting the speed awareness course so im praying like mad I do.

Caught by what? a fixed camera?

No chance if you've got two tickets.

Two traffic offence reports and you have.

Two traffic offence reports any you have.

These were my first offences and it was by a mobile undercover traffic cop

Can't say I have much sympathy for you as you didn't learn the first time.

Yeah I know my own fault, but I didn't know I got caught speeding until the saturday just gone no flash no nothing. Just gotta hope they let me have a speed awareness course for one of the offences so i only get 3points on my licence

There's a moose loose about this hoose!


Fingers crossed for you, these speed courses seem quite popular these days. Sure you used to have to be a certain age, but seems that's changed now

Good luck with that, every night for over 10 years I've prayed for Kylie to be in my bed and it hasn't happened
