Active for 3 years, removed after 4. Send your licence and a D1 form to the DVLA to get them removed. Costs £17.50 afaik.

They can be removed after 4 years... I thought it was 5. Will have to look and see how long i've had mine. will be either 3 or 4 years come April 1st.

you can apply for them to be removed after 4 years but you will have to pay.

however if you change your address and therefore have to alter your licence they do it for free.

Mine needs renewed on the April 1st, and that's when i got the points... i wonder if they'll take them off (assuming it's 4 years since i got them).

You must be under 25 then Fudge to get a course for going through a red light, had you been 25+ it would have been points!
