Penalty Points...

    Got caught speeding in June 06 (slightly over the limit but far enough the gardai have their quotas and easy spots to catch us!). Anyway just received notice of the 2 penalty points and the notification states the points will remain on the entry for a period of three years from "first day of holding a new license".

    A friend of mine was caught in the past and he had a specific date as to when the points came into effect (a month or two after the offence). Has this changed?

    I have a valid current license that is not due to expire for another year. Why are the points not applied now?

    Any info appreciated.

    maybe you're banned from driving for a while? And the points won't show up until you're able to get another license? :)

    Thanks but definitely not banned, think I would know by now if I was caught 5 previous times (assuming 2 points per offence). The notice states I only have 2 points on my license.
