What do you mean by proceed for prosecution?
You can be sent an NIP with no evidence against you and if you are muppet enough to sign and return it thats all they need for conviction.
To go to court it must be approved by the CPS who should only send it forward if there is a better than 50% chance of conviction. But as they are so incompetant errr... busy, they tend to send all motoring offences forward and only read the case notes on the day of the trial.
