If you lose your licence?

[Grahameeboy]

yep. one of my biggest arguments with insurance company. My excess for the car has doubled because of my demerit points (90) even though all my tickets have been on a bike. If i lose my licence by getting 1 more ticket 9if it be on the bike or car) then that will cancel my insurance for the car and they will not insure me until 2 years AFTER I GET MY LICENCE BACK. That is no insurance for the time I have no licence for (understandable) and then ANOTHER 2 year stand down period. It really sucks. Especially being as I have never had a claim. i argued that I am not insured for (ie. they do not pay) for my speeding fines but that didn't wash with them. There are alot of reprocussions of losing your licence. Not a path you want to travel.

They tripled my excess..8 years car/bike no claims and first set of convictions ever in 27 years and have been here 8....excess should reflect accidents / claims and normally the premium is increase to reflect licence convictions but this seems to have changed.......still premium did not go up so no xtra cost unless you have a fault claim so not as bad as it seems

Basically, if you do something wrong you drop trousers, bend over and TAKE it...
Not the ideal situation to be in, but have to do all you can not to get into the situation in the first place.


Yeah, here in the Northern Territory the speed limit will be 130 from next year, no demerit points!
Have to get the speed fix now till 2007, then down the pipe!

Have a good weekend
