How many points/fine will you get if... - wazza
Just seen a woman i know carrying 4 children in the back. 3 were wearing seatbelts. She had an adult in the front seat and a child in the footwell. She is also driving with 2 faulty brake lights. Only the middle one in the rear screen works.

So she is carry 2 children with no seat belts, for which i believe carries 3 points £60 fine each

for each faulty light carries ???

and carrying more people than intended ???

any idea what points/fine she will receive if stopped by the police?

wish to make her aware of her actions. They only live up the road so no reason why they can't walk.

Thanks

No idea but very often the police seem to go with what ever is the easiest conviction. I suspect in this case there is probably more faults with the car she could get points for too. If two brake lights are out you can guarantee at least one tyre is ilegal. Although I have known them to blow quite quickly after each other.
