Like I said go get some legal advice.

I'd be wary of thinking they'll reduce your fine / sentance to a driving education course, especially with points already on your license.

Go get the legal advice, it may pay for itself in the long run by avoiding a mahoosive fine or a ban.
+1 on the legal beagles.


Now this might be me talking balls as I'm no brief... but if he had been sent a NIP to determine who was driving (doesn't sound like he was), and did not respond to this (obviously he did not)... then would he not be being charged with failure to disclose the driver or whatever it's called rather than the DWDC offence?
