Huhne is in public life, which requires a lot of driving about, quite

Sorry, I call ********. If he drives that much he should be in *less* of
a position to pick up penalty points.


So somebody who drives say 50 miles per year will pick up more
penalty points than someone who drives 50,000 miles per year ?


Care to explain ?


Someone who drives 50,000 miles a year is relying on their car a great
deal more so should have the sense to stay within the law. And he's far
less likely to get a bollocking for being late than a travelling salesman
or van driver.
