What was the offence? After 3 years a non-custodial sentence will not cause an automatic refusal. However, depending on the offence it may still be viewed (by discretion) as an offence which does not meet the requirements of Good Character.

See the good character guidance at page 3 (non-custodial sentence).

So you were not licensed to drive. That would likely be considered as a recklessness offence (an offence that can still cause refusual, albeit dscretionaty). However, as the sentence was minimal it should pose no problem at all providing you have no other convictions.
