Then “everybody you know” is wrong. I opted to go on one just before the first Covid outbreak, rather than take the 3 points, and it was way better than I expected and covered several things I hadn’t previously been aware of. I’ve been on a lot of shit courses in my lifetime, but this wasn’t one of them…..£10 less for speed awareness course and no points. Everybody I know who have been on the course say it is just a time wasting effort to tell you the bleeding obvious.
I had been driving for 40 years and my job involved driving too and hadn’t got a speeding ticket in my life till I got caught on a long straight dual carriageway with on of those cameras that can see you from a quarter mile away . Ironically had to go to the local race track to have the course. Not too bad and like someone else mentioned it tells you a few things that you might not know or have forgotten like how to tell the speed limit without the signs and haxzard awareness so rather than have the points keep your clean licence although at your age I doubt you are still working mateYes I know but I would just have lost my temper on a speed awareness course having driven for so long without any offence. Too old now to bother about the cost I am just going to take it on the chin. I bought a new VW Polo in September 2021 and have not yet done 5k miles so very unlikely I will get many more offences if any.
Exactly bud, people get as much out of them as what they put in, too many people go with a pissed off, know it all, don’t want to be there attitude instead of being open to learning.Then “everybody you know” is wrong.

Two hours of your time where you can learn, or £80 a year for five years (increase in insurance premium for having points on your licence)Who, in their right mind would not go on a speed awareness course?
With any luck you could see Stella Braverman, but then again...

Driving for nearly 60 years puts you at nearly 80. At that age you shouldn't be on the road you doddery old fool.Suella the Buddhist.
Still pretty active, and 78 early next year. Passed my driving test at the first attempt while I was still a teenager, where have all those years gone.Driving for nearly 60 years puts you at nearly 80. At that age you shouldn't be on the road you doddery old fool.
Apt location ;)Yes I know but I would just have lost my temper on a speed awareness course having driven for so long without any offence.
