Did one a few months back through drivewise (who have maybe not surprisingly lost their contract...)
The teacher / lecturer was
a) racist
b) mysoginist
c) factually short of all facts...
d) an
I for one would assume that having admitted guilt in a magistrates court of contravening sec 5 of the RTA Act 1988, I would be in possession of a criminal record (googling seems to affirm this suspicion, however he insisted as a non custodial first offence it was not)
Cost £175 for which I got a certificate that a high school student could knock up in word / photoshop in 30 mins...
Current insurers laughed at the suggestion of a discount and loaded the premium by a factor about a 1/3 less to which i was expecting............
Went from £250 a year to £650.
so in total
fine £400
costs £85
victim surcharge £15
****y course £175
license app £65
inc on yr 1 ins £400
ouch!
For the record I was a "morning after the night before", and no not offering it as mitigating or defence, but there was no intention there.. lesson learned! Thankfully empoyers very sympathetic. boss was pretty much "Ooh ****, been there done that, many a time but not pulled!"
