No, that's not right.


Are you saying that a person who drives while disqualified *is*
"serving his ban in full as directed by the courts."

Calum

This is getting a bit semantic, but as being banned is essentially a passive
thing you don't really _serve_ it in the same way as you serve a sentence -
you're not required to _do_ anything or _be_ anywhere, merely not to drive.
The offence you commit if you drive while banned is driving while banned,
not 'breaking the ban'.So you can't serve a ban but you can be in breach of
it.
