This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Rejected petition Stop issuing Penalty Points for overspeeeding that is not more than five.
I observed that many people over speed innocently and unconsciously with two or three over the limit twice within one year, they got banned from driving because of the points. This is unfair and can be limited to fines as it is done in some other parts of Europe.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand you're concerned about penalty points for speeding offences but there are already small tolerances built in to the speeding offences system, so we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
