How long until penalty points show on system/licence

    I will try and keep this short. Was driving on Saturday and went a bit over the speed limit (65-70 approx. in a 60 zone) and I didn't notice the speed camera van there so I might have been caught.

    I'm moving out of my current place this week and into some temporary accommodation for a few weeks before an expected move back to the north next month.

    If I have been caught, I don't know how long it will be until they send a notification but as I'm not going to be living at that address after the end of this week, I won't be there to receive any post. My landlord said they would let me know if any post arrives after I've moved out but I don't know how reliable that is.

    I don't want things to escalate if I have been caught as I think the fine increases and becomes a court summons if you don't pay it, although I'm not sure I'd receive any of those as I'm moving, so it may escalate even further.

    I'd rather pay any fine that exists and move on.

    Is there a way for me to check if I have a fine and points? How long would I need to wait before checking ? I have a southern reg car but my licence is a UK licence so I don't know what happens there around having points on it. The car will be exported and re-registered when I move also.
