    Just got my first 2 for going a wee bit too fast

    how long do they stay on your licence for? I haven't paid the fine yet .. anybody know of any ways out of getting the points(besides not speeding in the first place or getting someone else to put them on their licence) ... i'm sure any loopholes have been tied up by this stage but just wondering

    btw
    i've been away for a while and see the search facility has been deactivated ... anyone know why?

    tbh I've been thru all those lines of thinking, just pay the fine!

    date of issue being when the DoE notify you not the gardai - there can be a significant time difference.

    As for the detector, there is a [URL="http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=319565]Laser Detector thread[/URL] currently running.
    Detectors are totally illegal to have, use, fit, own, play with, look at, think of, etc. Give it [a really long] time and there will probably be points for them
