Proceeding contribution from Earl of Erroll (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 27 June 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Road Safety Bill [HL].


Road Safety Bill [HL]

I will tell noble Lords the problem. The noble Earl, Lord Attlee, mentioned it. If you were not watching your tyres very carefully, and you drove to Scotland and back, you could actually be disqualified if someone spotted you on your return. If you had four slightly under the limit tyres—which would have been perfectly legal a few years back—because it is three points per tyre, that is 12 points—and you are out.
