They can't match up the points, because the UK has a plus points system whereas we have a minus points system. In addition, different offences have different point allocations. So there is little they can do in reality.

They can and will fine you though, and if your licence isn't as it should be (i.e. living here more than 6 months still on a British licence) ... ouch.

Have a look HERE
