I suppose the younger you are, the bigger the impact on your insurance.

You won't need to declare it till your renewal (i think)

"Most" insurance companies nowadays don't take into account points acquired as a result of speeding penalties due to the fact the government seem to be targeting them as a stealth tax. I doubt it will affect your insurance schedule by much, if anything.

As always though, you do need to let them know as soon as possible asbout the incident if you get points as a result of it, otherwise it could invalidate your insurance.

The first 3 pts hardly make a difference - maybe just an admin fee, keep collecting them though, and it will go up frown

3 Points on my liscence increased insurance by about 100quid, so monthly not a massive impact!

Could have run out of film or had no film in the camera then.

Let this be a lesson to you not to speed, next time you might not be so lucky smile
