What would a totting up ban do to your livelihood?
Totting Up Ban
You will be in danger of incurring a totting up ban if you accrue 12 penalty points on your licence within any 3-year period. If you are in Manchester, Cheshire, Sheffield, Rotherham, Doncaster, Barnsley, Leeds, Huddersfield and Bradford, and are worried about a possible driving ban, our specialist motor lawyers will provide you with essential legal assistance so that you can either avoid or minimise any disqualification.
Most driving offences (such as speeding, vehicle faults or minor traffic offences) bring about a fixed penalty notice of 3 penalty points and a £100 fine. As with any driving licence endorsement, these points will remain on your driver’s licence for at least 4 years.
Naturally, though, the more serious the offence, the more points will be endorsed on your licence. So, a conviction for driving without insurance can incur up to 6 points, a careless driving conviction can incur up to 9 points, and a conviction for dangerous driving or drink driving can incur up to 11 penalty points.
A totting up ban will often be 6 months, but could be longer if it is not your first ban. If, though, you are within the first 2 years of passing your driving test, you only need build up 6 penalty points to have your licence revoked.
If you are in danger of receiving a driving disqualification from totting up 12 penalty points, you may need to argue a case of exceptional hardship in order to overturn or reduce your ban.

I was charged with drink driving and my case looked hopeless. There was witness evidence and forensic evidence. From my first meeting with Abdul he reassured me that we could win the case. Abdul was fantastic and the end result is that I am a happy man as I have kept my driving licence and my job. Scott McDonald.
I was initially somewhat sceptical about keeping my licence, I was stopped for Drink Driving and the costs were high, but the result was excellent, and the money was certainly well spent. I would not hesitate to use DFR again. Michael A.
I had never been in court previously, and the prospect was terrifying. I was stopped for Drink Driving, and was looking at a significant disqualification. The result in the circumstances was unbelievable, the solicitor was excellent in presenting my case and explaining the extenuating circumstances. I was overjoyed with the final result.

From the outset Abdul reassured me, talked me through everything and put my mind at ease that I was in the best possible hands at a time of stress and panic. The process from our initial meeting was seamless and Abdul put plans in place for me to receive the best possible outcome in court with some ground work from myself. I honestly can't thank Abdul enough for his services, although he was there in a professional manner he also showed great understanding of my situation and helped me through a difficult time.
