A MAP has revealed the areas in the UK with the worst drivers – with one city seeing more than 10,000 motorists with six licence points. <\/p>\n
There's even one postcode with thousands of drivers who have clocked up a heap of points against their names. <\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
But one city has been labelled the worst – and that's Bradford. <\/p>\n
There, a whopping 11,278 have six or more points on their licence. <\/p>\n
Other areas have drivers who have clocked up similar stats, according to the government. <\/p>\n
In Croydon, a massive 6,126 motorists have notched up the worrying points while behind the wheel. <\/p>\n
Elsewhere, in parts of Leicester and Slough, more than 5,000 drivers had more than six points on their licence. <\/p>\n Other parts of Lecister and Slough, Gloucester, North West London, Northampton, and East London had more than 4,000 motorists living there who have been breaking the rules. <\/p>\n Last month the postcodes where drivers have the most points on the licences were revealed. <\/p>\n Motorists had been driving badly across\u00a0the country, with one region seeing more than one in ten drivers who live there having three or more points.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Figures showed that a total of 2,781,954 drivers across\u00a0England,\u00a0Scotland\u00a0and\u00a0Wales\u00a0currently had at least three points on their\u00a0driving\u00a0licences for motoring offences.<\/p>\n And those in Halifax were the worst offenders, with 10,947 drivers recorded as having three or more points currently, according to figures published in September.<\/p>\n This is a whopping 10.7 per cent out of 102,350 licensed motorists who live there.<\/p>\n John Wilmot, chief executive of LeaseLoco, said at the time: "Almost three million motorists in England, Scotland and Wales have at least three penalty points on their driving licences, with a large number of these fines incurred for speeding.<\/p>\n "Motorists need to remember that endorsements stay on your licence for between four and eleven years, depending on the offence committed.<\/p>\n "Having points on your licence will almost certainly lead to a higher\u00a0insurance\u00a0premium as insurers consider the risk factors associated with a given customer when calculating the premiums.<\/p>\n "And at a time when millions of people are already struggling with the\u00a0cost of living, higher\u00a0car insurance\u00a0premiums will sting more than ever.<\/p>\n "With car insurance premiums already significantly higher than 12 months ago, and not likely to fall any time soon, committing a motoring offence isn't just a danger to other road users, it is likely to significantly hurt you in the pocket too."<\/p>\n<\/picture>FESTIVE FAIL <\/span><\/p>\n
