for a friend,
do you have to send your licence back to dvla to make them aware of your points or do they send you a letter saying they have revoked your licence, been a while and he still hasnt recieved a letter?
is he still able to drive until dvla issue the revoking letter?
cheers

Not sure, but is it worth the rist of getting a longer ban if it isn't legal?
Why doesn't he ring the DVLA and ask them on Monday to find out? They'll know 100%, it'll be guess work on here.

As he said more or less. As soon as you have received a letter revoking your licence you can apply for a new provisional and start again. There is no set ban time because it isnt a ban. Might as well be though by the time you have waited for a licence and resat your tests
