New Driver escapes revocation with 7 day disqualification instead.

Millicent Dooher represented this driver at the Magistrate’s Court following a top bracket speeding offence. Top bracket speeding offences carry 6 penalty points or a disqualification. This driver was a new driver, having passed his test in the last 2 years. Any new driver with 6 penalty points on their licence will have their licence revoked and must re-pass their test. Millicent was able to persuade the Magistrates not to impose the penalty points and instead impose a disqualification of 7 days. The meant that the driver did not have any penalty points endorsed on his licence and did not have his licence revoked.
