Are You Risking Thousands In Fines For These Unusual Driving Violations?

Hi,

Did you know that you could receive a £1,000 fine and 6 points on your licence for paying with your phone in a drive-through, with your engine on?

Or, however silly it may sound, you could risk a £5,000 fine and 3 points on your licence for splashing a pedestrian - under the Road Traffic Act for careless, aggressive and inconsiderate driving?

It seems that many of us aren't aware of the more unusual, or less common, driving laws - unknowingly risking fines and points on a daily basis.

Select Car Leasing<https://www.selectcarleasing.co.uk/> have created a quiz to see how many points and fines you could have racked up in the last 12 months but not being aware of all the laws, and how you compare to the rest of the country.

Test your knowledge of driving violations that could cost you your licence here: https://www.selectcarleasing.co.uk/driving-laws/index.html

This test shows how many driving violations you've committed in the past year. On average, people who took this test collected over 12 points and around £5,000 in fines - are you risking losing your licence through poor knowledge of these unusual laws?

Stand Out Results:

  *   71% admitted to using their phone while waiting at a drive-through with the engine on - this could cost you £1,000 fine and 6 points on your licence.
  *   4 out of 10 pet owners are risking 9 points and a £5,000 fine by letting their pet roam free in the car.
  *   1 in 10 people have been driving with mud on their registration in the past year, which could cost them £1,000.
  *   1 in 5 people flash their lights at another car to warn of a speed camera, potentially costing them £1,000 in fines.
  *   31% of people have forgotten to sweep the snow off the roof of the car, which could have led to 3 points and a relatively minor £60 fine.

Do you think this would be interesting for your readers?
