92,000 UK drivers are at imminent risk of losing their driving licence

92,000 drivers in the UK are at imminent risk of losing their driving licence. (PA) Nearly 100,000 motorists are at risk of losing their driving licence with just one more motoring offence resulting in a ban, IAM RoadSmart has found. A Freedom of Information request to DVLA by IAM RoadSmart, the UK’s largest independent road safety charity, found 92,000 drivers in the UK currently have 9, 10 or 11 points on their licence Motorists face the real risk of losing their licence with another 3 points pushing them on or over the 12-point ban threshold. This could be through everyday driving habits, ignorance or judgement errors – such as speeding, overtaking on a double white line, parking in a dangerous place, not stopping at a school crossing, carrying too many passengers or overloading the vehicle.

Many drivers may also be unaware that a lack of basic vehicle maintenance could also land you with points – such as defective tyres, blown headlight or brake light bulbs, cracked light covers, smeary windscreen wipers or worn suspension components.  At present, there are 80,484 motorists in the UK with nine points on their licence, 7,804 with 10 points and 4,313 with 11 points. Meanwhile, there are nearly 8,800 motorists still driving with 12 points or more on their driving licence, with IAM RoadSmart renewing its call for a full review to ensure that drivers with multiple points are always treated in the same way. The charity argues that until anomalies are removed confidence in the simple “12 points and you are out” system will continue to be undermined.
