    I doubt very much they'll be offered a speed awareness cours.
    ALL speed awareness courses ceased to exist and police stopped offering them when the pandemic hit and we went into lockdown. As far as I'm aware speed awareness courses have not resumed so it's now back to points and fine for going more than 10%+2MPH over the limit.


    So I can't be offered a course because of a pandemic but everyone before and after me can? I can't see them doing that, it would be unjust and unfair. 
    No, it would be a sensible response to a pandemic until we come out of lockdown....
    Using your contorted logic, everyone who took points in the decades before SAC's were introduced should now be offered a complimentary retrospective course and their points wiped? 
    As injustices go, this ranks pretty low in my estimation...
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)
