How Many Points Will I Receive For Driving Through A Red Light

In most instances, if you are caught driving through a red light, you will be issued with three penalty points, which must remain on your licence for four years from the date of the offence.

In addition to being issued three penalty points, you will be handed a TS10 conviction code, which relates to ‘failing to comply with traffic light signals’.

Even with a TS10 motoring conviction, we should still be able to find you a policy that suits your needs, as we specialise in insurance for drivers with convictions.

If you have multiple driving convictions or have been banned for ‘totting up’, Insurance Revolution can help. Visit our Convicted Driver Insurance page for more information.
