The Bill provides that the offence of using a liable vehicle without having a speed limiter fitted will attract penalty points. Section 16(2)(e) of the Bill updates the legislative basis for the application of penalty points for speed limitation device offences. This technical amendment to section 16(2)(e) provides that offences relating to the installation of a non-approved and unsealed speed limitation device in vehicles will also constitute an offence for the purpose of penalty points.
