Company Director with 12 Penalty Points Receives no Disqualification Due to Impact any Disqualification Would Have on the Company

Millicent Dooher represented this driver before the Magistrates following 4 speeding offences, all carrying 3 points, making this driver a ‘totter’. Any driver who received 12 or more penalty points in 3 years is a totter and faces a mandatory disqualification of 6 months minimum. Millicent was able to persuade the Magistrates that exceptional hardship would follow if a disqualification was imposed due to the nature of the Company. The Magistrates imposed no period of disqualification for this driver.
