    Quick question, anyone know the best source to get Disqualified Driver statistics. Its more for a side project then college, but can't seem to find much relating to Ireland and England. Stuff like, how many on average or over the past 5 years etc.
    Would appreciate any help!

    Courts service in Ireland, DVLA in UK.

    Statistics might not help that much as a % of people have multiple convictions. I have seen the same person get 15 seperate bans over 5 year period.
    Ban 1 for 2 years DD no ins or license
    Ban 2 5 years
    Ban 3 10 year
    Ban 4 10 years

    and on and on up to the 15th time he had been caught in 5 years, then he got a 25 year ban fined 1 month jail, served 2 hours I think.

    Do you think this person gives a F*ck about getting banned?


    BTW I was court clerk in Dublin for years. I have sat through well over 5000 district court cases in the busiest court in Dublin.
