The New Drivers Act only applies to the first driving test that you pass. If you add a further category to your licence you would not be subject to the New Drivers Act again. If you have been granted a licence without having to pass a driving test, the New Drivers Act does would not apply. If however you have to take a driving test then you will be subject to the New Drivers Act as it would be the first UK driving licence that you would have taken. It is always advisable to seek assistance from a specialist motoring solicitor as soon as you receive a charge sheet or summons for any driving offence.
It is best to seek advice as soon as possible in order put a defence forward or to keep any disqualification to the shortest possible period. We offer professional expert advice in relation to new drivers and the New Drivers Act, in order to find out how to proceed please contact us at the earliest opportunity.
What is the New Drivers Act and who does it apply to? What happens if my driving licence is revoked as a new driver? Can the DVLA revoke my licence without pre- warning?
Would my provisional licence also be revoked? Can I avoid having my licence revoked? Can I appeal if my licence has been revoked? I have received 6 points as a new driver but I have not received notification that my licence has been revoked, does this mean that I am still entitled to drive?
I already had a licence for driving a car and I have recently passed my bike test, does this mean that I am subject to the New Drivers Act? What happens if I had a foreign driving licence? When should I seek legal advice?
All Rights Reserved. If you are guilty of the offence, then magistrates have very little discretion about imposing points on your driving licence. Once you have the points then the decision to revoke happens administratively at the DVLA as soon as they are notified of the 6 points added to your licence by the court. This process is automatic and there is no means of affecting the outcome.
The police will inform the DVLA about the points who will then write to you explaining that your licence is revoked. If you were to continue to drive you would commit additional offences and would risk a 6 month totting up ban.
They will remain effective for 3 years from the date of the original offence. To avoid a license revocation, you have to avoid the points, so will have to take the matter to court. The downside to going to court is that you risk a potentially larger fine, additional court costs as well as 6 — 8 points. This is obviously more than the 6 pts you would get from a fixed penalty.
If you are going to go to court, make sure that you can realistically use a special reasons argument. Or, you will need to have really good mitigating circumstances, otherwise the outcome will be worse that the fixed penalty would have been. If you accumulate any more points during the first two years after passing your test then you will have your licence revoked at that time.
If you are given additional points for the offence that happened during your probationary period, and those points brings your total points to 6 or more then yes, unfortunately you will have your licence revoked.
This is because the date of the court case and the date that points are actually added to your licence is not important. The important date is the date of the offence. If the offence happened during your 2 year probationary period then you licence will be revoked. If you accumulate 6 or more points on your licence, and the latest offence happened within your 2 year probationary period then you will have your driving licence revoked.
Thanks to you and the whole team that were involved his case. We are sure it would have been a very different outcome if he had not been represented by yourselves in court. Your Barrister ensured the case was conducted firmly, fairly, and correctly. After watching my son's case in court, I would recommend anyone that finds themselves in a similar position to get themselves represented. And I would wholeheartedly recommend you without question for that task. I would just like to say a great big thank you as I now only have 5 points and I get to keep my license.
All your help had been very much appreciated, and I will highly recommend you, once again thank you. Beta, Older Drivers, and More. Download Drivers.
