ok ppl i drove to bris today from the whitsundays where i have been for a week and well i left at 3 to beat some holiday trafic and well I LOST MY LICENCE. it was like 5:00am and i was about 120km south of mackay (about 270km north of rockhamton) and i was doing 137kmh in a 100 zone WTF was i thinking????? $350 fine and lost my licence. ok i am on my P's and not i can loose it for 3mths then get it back with 4 pts OR get the 1 point probationary licence for a yr but if i loose it i will lose my licence for 6 mths. AARRRGGGGHHHHH oh well i can only blame my self i guess i just didnt expect a cop in the middle of no where at that time.

Take the 1 point deal and obey the fu$%in' law.

LoL just go with the 1 point!!!

i wish we had that option in NSW...

if i were you I would ttake the 3 month option. I know of about 5 people who have goine on it and the results are as follows:

1 completed it with no problem
1 completed it and lost 4 points the week they got it back
2 lost it with about 1-2 months to go
1 lost it only about 2 months into it.

The way the car scene is in brisbane and the way us young people get picked on, you are better off taking the three month option. because 3 months is better than 6

At least ur can admit it was your fault and not some stupid ass ****ing asshole cop's

I'd take the three month option. The three month period flies by in no time and you get your full 4 points back. This is handy as it is possible for mistakes to happen....For instance you slip over the limit cruising down a hill... enough to lose 1 point and then you're off the road for 6 months.....Its hard to maintain absolute vigilance for a whole year....Nobody is perfect...

yeh i think i might go the 3 month option, i shall go and pay it tommorrow. i was really supprised the cop was really good about it he wasnt as bad as i expected. yep ok thanks for the response guys (i dont think i will be speeding any time soon)

Really??? how many fines do u get a year? It took 7years b4 I got my 1st loss of points (8pts in one month thou hahaha) and been clean since, thou I have had afew close shaves haha.

The above case is a perfect example of revenue raising over public safety. 130 in a 100 isnt as bad as 90 in a 60 or 70 in a 40. The copper prob needed to fill his quota for the shift and you were unlucky one.

Just take the 1pt option, there are hundreds of p-platers out there on 1pt, its no big deal
