Harriet Harman avoids drive ban

From what has been said the mobile phone charge was dropped - was this because that even combined with the lowest penalty of 3 points she was fined she would have lost her licence due to the previous speeding convictions.

I wonder what special hardships she claimed to keep her licence given that she has a chauffer for official business ?

the mobile phone charge had been dropped because the penalty for driving without due care and attention was greater than that for using a mobile.


Odd as watching the local papers I often see drivers who have multiple charges made against them, so why do they not have the lesser charge dropped ?

Oh to be a member of the 'Central Party' oops Labour Party...
