Hi there,
I was convicted on 1st March 2010 and given 24mth ban, appealed and had the ban suspended pending the appeal. DVLA wrote to me a few days later and asked me to send my licence off, which I did, and they returned it a few days later with nothing on it? I continued to drive until my appeal date on 24th June 2010. I lost the appeal and therefore the ban came into place from that date. I have 2 questions:
1) Does the 24 mth ban go from the date of conviction on 1st March or the date the ban actually came into effect on 24th June
2) The court did not ask for my licence, nor has the DVLA written to me to ask for it. Therefore I still have my licence in my posession - is this normal?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
