There's the automatic 3 points added by the French authorities through our DVLA as well, don't forget.Blade wrote:45 euros is getting off lightly I would take that as a win.

Re: Mr Postman
No points. Only a fine.
I think they only apply points if it's a severe penalty or drink / drugs / danger related.

Re: Mr Postman
Get caught doing 50km/h over the limit and the fine is 1500 euros.
Frankie's tickets are for another part of the same road. They must have been all over the place and hiding as i didn't see one gendarme with a gun.

Re: Mr Postman
Fwiw I was only kidding them along, thought it may help to sweeten the blow still further when they realised there are no points applied so (as Blade pointed out) pretty good result in real terms.

95km/h in a 80 limit. 45euros. Didn’t even see the gendarme. Days of being able to get away with it are very very limited.
