These four offences are speeding, careless and inconsiderate driving, ignoring traffic signs and using a special road contrary to scheme or regulation. For each of these offences the courses would be offered to: 1. people who attend court for the above offences and for which the court, having decided that an x number of points and a y amount of fine is imposed, puts the total endorsements on the driver’s licence at between 7 and 11 points; and 2. people who attend court for the above offences and for which the court decided that they will be disqualified from driving for at least one year. On completion of the course, offenders would be offered a reduction in their endorsement points or disqualification period. In anticipation of the possibility of these new courses, the Department for Transport commissioned this research to provide a detailed exploration of the person characteristics of likely course attendees, as well as general views of police and magistrates as to the contribution such a course could make to road safety.
