This came up in conversation over the weekend with some mates/colleagues as it turned out we'd all done one, so assuming a few have here, the question is... do they work, and is there any point ? |

I haven't been on a course but i like the idea of it vs. draconian points and fine (understandably not if you were doing over twice the speed limit). I lost my license in my probation period due to 6 points, with the latter being for speeding and would much have preferred going a course vs. losing my license. |

Done 2 and would say they are a lot better than points and can teach you some things , but it depends on the person giving the presentation. The 1st one I did seemed to be higher quality than the more recent course I attended . The guy giving the second one was not up to the task and just came over as a rule obsessed pussy lol . |

The one I did was quite informative and interesting, and also how uninformed other road users are, as most people on the course had unbelievably poor knowledge about road rules and speed limits. I don't think it made me drive slower just more cautiously. |

I tthought most of the information given was quite dated and didn't really find them to be great. especially when every video has an omega in. I did how ever prefer to have a course than points lol. |
