POLL: Should Jersey introduce a UK-style penalty points system?

Infrastructure Minister Eddie Noel announced last year that a points system for penalising those who commit motoring offences is being considered and that an overhaul of road safety measures had been discussed by senior civil servants, Constables and the honorary and States police.

Under the system, drivers would receive points for committing offences and once they reach a certain number they could lose their licence.

This week Tim Parker-Garner, chairman of the Jersey Road Safety Panel, said that he would welcome a points-based penalty system.

But do you agree?
