I had 3 points which came off in 2003, I got them when I was caught doing 96 on the M62 in my mums Fiat Punto. According to my mum (who's a JP) I should've got 6 points but I assume because I didn't argue with them they let me get away with 3. I've never driven that fast on the motorway since.

SWMBO does that sort of speed all the time on the motorway and has never been stopped once.
