Hi all,

My friend have committed the following offence;

DR10 = Driving or attempting to drive with alcohol level above limit
Period 36 months
Start date: 25 Feb 2015
End date: 24 Feb 2018
Fine £250

IN10 = Using Vehicle uninsured against third party risks
Start date: 9 Feb 2015
End date: 9 Feb 2018

DR10 = Driving or attempting to drive with alcohol level above limit
Period 12 months
Start date: 9 Jan 2006
End date: 8 Jan 2007
Fine £130

Would it be possible for his to apply for British Citizenship?
3 years have elapsed since the offence committed.
He has now got the driving licence.

Is it 3 years or 5 years?
Any experiences / advice welcome.

The repeat of serious driving offences may result in a refusal. Also see:

"Drink driving offences must be declared. If you have any endorsements on your
driving licence you must access the DVLA website to download and print a summary
of your record and send it with your application. A driving conviction may not be
disregarded despite any penalty points being removed from your driving licence"
