If you are driving at over the speed limit and get caught by a camera then normally you would be offered a fixed penalty, currently £60 fine and 3 points on your licence. However if you only exceeded the speed limit by a small margin (for example, I think in 30mph zones the cameras catch you at 30+10% or 33mph and above. If you are doing 33-39mph I think this counts as a "small margin") then you may be offered an alternative to the 3 points and £60 - that is, to go on a Speed Awareness Course instead. This costs £79.50 but means you keep a clean licence - no points or fixed penalty. You have to agree to the course within 21 days and complete the course with the particular provider, within a certain time period (5 months I think). The course is designed to show you the dangers of speeding and encourage you to stay within the limits. If you already have 8 points or more then you won't be offered the course.
