How many are for driving offenses or ones that did not result in a custodial sentance?
If the state has spent 10s of thousands on training someone up, they've then worked for years gaining experience it'ld be a shame to just toss them on the scrap heap for a minor offence.

To get a driving conviction
You must either be drink driving, being unbelievably reckless, speeding way beyond 100mph or causing huge accidents. Its nearly impossible to get a custodial conviction for driving if you don't hit anyone, as that footballer who was doing 130mph (Andre Santos) showed.
Penalty points don't count as convictions.
So on that basis, if a Polis has a driving conviction (eg. a drunk-driving ban), then it shows a massive lack of understanding and respect for the laws they are meant to uphold and so I think they should obviously be barred.
