the fact is if you have being caught its an offence. "mistake" and "twice" is not an excuse!. also if you just passed is also not an excuse !.
have u received any documentation from law enforcement authority ?
if so you should disclose it.
it will be up to Home office to decide on this but dont think they will not find out.
What checks are made by the HO (non criminal)?
Credit checks are not carried out for the purpose of assessing good character but the Home Office will check an applicant’s financial background with the police and other government departments. For example, checks will be conducted to ascertain if the applicant has paid income tax, National Insurance contributions, Council Tax and whether they have any civil penalties or judgements.
I think there should be a sticky here for people to drive carefully. so many people I have seen here ruining their future prospects just because of silly offences.
In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.
