Driving Endorsements
I was stopped by the local constabulary on Saturday afternoon and the result is I am now the proud owner of some penalty points for speeding - what effect does this have on any application I make for sponsorship?
Any comments?

I hear that many of them don't have film in them, so fingers crossed for you GJB.
I was flashed last year (ahem...by a camera, by the way) as I crossed the white line of a red light. It was at that awkward moment where it went from orange to red as I was crossing. Lucky for me, I found out later that there was no film as nothing seemed to transpire from the incident.
Unfortunately, it was not the best start to a tricky day. My Destination - Cranebank, for TEP aptitudes. "That's all I need today", I thought. Fortunately, I kept my cool and did okay that day.
Looking back it makes me laugh!

Patsy,
I think this topic was covered about a year ago..somebody asked the same question...and it turned out that loads of people had a penalty mostly for speeding (including me).
However,I have sent applications in for a few sponsorships and it has never caused a problem.
One opinion says that a speeding ticket might be viewed positively as you're trying to get somewhere...or something like that..but I don't know...
GJB...good luck mate..fingers crossed for you mate..

G-XX...finals and hopefully land!

Just expect the interview question...
If you are such a law abiding citizen/ believe in rules and regulations etc..etc...etc.. why have you got a conviction for speeding???
The way the motorist is targetted these days, I would expect the vast majority of normal people will have at least one fixed penalty on their licence in the future.
Welcome to the club.
Cheers
