3 years unless its dangerous or drink driving i think.

Edit:
quote:

It depends on the type of offence. For more serious offences the endorsement starts on the date of conviction, and for others on the date of the offence. (N.B. The codes shown in brackets below are the codes that show on your licence)

Totting Up (TT99) : If you get 12 or more points within a period of 3 years, you'll be disqualified under the Totting Up system, but at the end of disqualification the points accrued in those three years will normally no longer count against you.

However, if you have not been disqualified under the three years totting up, then the endorsement will be shown on your licence for the following differing periods of time:

11 years for:
- Drinking/drugs & driving (DR10, DR20, DR30 and DR80)
- Causing death by careless driving whilst under the influence of drink/drugs (CD40, CD50 and CD60) - Causing death by careless driving, then failing to provide a specimen for analysis (CD70)

4 years for:
- Dangerous driving (DD40, DD60 and DD80)
- Offences resulting in disqualification
- Disqualified from holding a full licence until a driving test has been passed.
- Other less serious endorsable offences (speeding, vehicle defects etc.).

After the relevant period, if you wish, you may apply for a new counterpart licence that will not have any record of the points/endorsement on it. You will need form D1 (previously D750) along with the appropriate fee.

They'll stop counting in Feb '10, you can get them removed Feb '11 and you can stop telling your insurance company about them in Feb '12.

Can't understand the point behind the 2 year gap of them not counting yet insurance being able to charge more.

Don't you have to pay to get them removed from your license ?
