Scotland's first female chief constable has been fined £400 and given seven penalty points after being found guilty of careless driving.


Quote:
Her driving licence already has three points

So that would make 10 points not enough to get banned but she could have earned 9 points which would have been a ban. Got off lightly I think.

I would have thought that she was driving dangerously unless she the vehicle was at fault though that was rejected. Though,

Quote:
Following a two-day trial, the court rejected Graham's claim that there had been a fault with her Audi Quattro car.

Sheriff Grant McCulloch said: "I do not accept the accused's evidence that her car would not let her steer to the left. No deficiencies were found. Either she was not braking hard enough or her speed was such that hard braking would not be sufficient.

So add another 3 to six points for speeding.
