3 Penalty Points for Careless driving

This driver pleaded guilty to a single offence of careless driving (driving with undue care and attention). He was represented by barrister, Millicent Dooher, at the sentencing hearing. The Court accepted that this was the lowest category of careless driving and imposed 3 penalty points only and a fine. This driver already had penalty points on his licence and could have faced a ‘totting’ disqualification if more points were imposed.
