Help! Driving license malarkey...

[rachus]

I've only just found out that if/when you get caught speeding the notice gets sent to your address on your license. For some stupid reason I hadn't even thought of this!
I haven't lived in the address on my license for over 2 years! I know I have to go to DVLA but don't know in's and out's of getting it changed.

And I'm worried I have points on my license and fines that i didnt even know about.. arrGGggGgghHHHhhhhh!

well put.
i just cant cope with bills, rent, forms, insurence.. etc etc.

i haven't even got a contract phone. i think we should start a revolution where we get rid of all responsibility.

I only got a contract last year, as realise all my drunk texts were costing me a fortune :laugh_at:
recently was asked when I was gonna stop living 'like a student' and thought..... I dunno and why should I?

A report in the paper today says there has been a record fall in the number of speed camera penalties after police and LA's lost the right to keep the proceeds

Hopefully the film had not been changed in the camera that flashed you. I assuming you were flashed and not stopped.

Shows how cynical they are..only interested in the revenue and not public welfare

oops! misread the original post hence the skewed reply.. i'll blame it on that cheeky pipe i had earlier..

chill geez - it doesnt go to the addrress on the licence - it goos to the address where the car is registered. For the good reason that they dont know whoose driving from the reg plate but they do know who the regisstered kkeeper is

beware however that its upto a £K fine for not having your registered address the same as your driving licence - so dont tell them that it isnt, butt get it changed quick smart.
