Ahhh the speed awareness course. I was going to take this after being offered it until i found out that you still have to inform your insurance company, meaning they will still put your premium up and you have to pay £80 and spend a day being talked to like a child. Still if you need a clean license for a job it is worth it.
you dont have to tell them so your premium doesnt go up.
The course was actually ok to my surprise, it wasnt condescending at all, but informative. I will admit, although highly sceptical of it, it did make a difference to the way I drive. I'm just a bit calmer in certain places now.
