Default NSW Education Minister set to lose license! Shock, horror zzzz

News item:-
http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2...13/2243592.htm

Quote:
New South Wales Education Minister John Della Bosca has admitted he expects to lose his driver's licence after receiving another speeding ticket.

Mr Della Bosca, who lives on the state's central coast, has been on a probationary licence since the beginning of the year after accruing too many demerit points for speeding.

"Regrettably, I have now received another infringement notice," he said in a statement.

"Today, I advised the Roads and Traffic Authority that I was the driver and as a result, I expect to lose my driver's licence for six months."

He says he has not yet received official notice about his licence status but has stopped driving in the meantime.

"In addition to the penalties provided by the law, I have surrendered my general entitlement to a ministerial vehicle, although I anticipate that to fulfil duties and functions as a Minister, some driving services will be required," the statement said.

"I regret my carelessness and I can report that speed cameras are effective."
Some people just never 'learn' do they....?! :-)
(Pun intended, calm down Doris).
