Introduce a progressive system of penalties for speeding offences in 20mph zones
We call on the Government to amend sentencing laws and reduce the minimum penalties for speeding in 20mph zones, so that a first offence between 20-25 mph only results in 1 point, a second leads to 2 points, and a third leads to 3 points.

Background
We believe too many urban drivers are accumulating points and getting disqualified for marginal and minor offenses. A progressive system could send out the same message but avoid automatic disqualification being imposed too quickly.
