Hey, i stupidly ran a red light the other day
I was wondering if its 3 points + fine, or just fine, as i've had my licence for less than 2 years :(

The offence carries an endorsement and so it is 3 points plus a fine or fixed penalty.

Six points within two years of passing your test means your full licence is revoked and it's back to provisional.
My friend ran a red lght and got 6 points and 250 quid fine!!
3 points and sixty quid most likely
Three points is the minimum and that will be applicable if you are offered and accept a fixed penalty, or if you go to court, plead guilty and there are no aggravating circumstances.
I did the other week, went through a red at 16mph following a bus. I accepted their offer, 3 points and �60.00 fine paid within 28 days from notice. If you dispute claim, chances are you could get more points and bigger fine if it dispute fails!
