6 points and £200 fine probably and you will lose your licence.

Note:
"If you have just passed your first driving test, the New Drivers (NI) Order means you're 'on probation' for two years. If you reach six or more penalty points in that time, you'll lose your licence. Then, you'll have to apply and pay for a new provisional
licence
."

This would also mean you would have to re-take your theory and practical driving test. :idea:

Also your insurance premiums will go up significantly too.

The Driving Awareness course is only for speeding offences.

Serve the ban, retake test, reapply for licence and obey the law. My butler tells me both my Bentley's have hand-free mobile connectivity, I'm sure ordinary cars do too.

Just looking at your posting history, are you here legally? If not you stand a good chance of having your licence revoked permanently...
