Default Legal help needed and quick!

My lady has just landed herself a cheeky NIP so does anyone have that letter that gets you off and can you also explain if i need to do anything else in the mean time?

Cheers in advance!

Don

Have a look here.

Look for the stuff about making "PACE" statement, If you have the patience it might work out if they havent closed the loophole.

If it was me though and I knew that I was definately speeding, then I'd just take the fine / point.

If your going to do the PACE you have to follow the intructions exactly, but it might backfire on you and you'll get in deeper hot water ( possibly )

Fizz you star mate thanks a lot matey.....she was doing 41 in a thirty so i reckon 3 points is what she'll get if she admits it.....got to have a try though as its not like she is doing anything illegal sending the PACE letter away tho is it?

Does anyone know if they have closed the loophole or not?

Has Mrs Ward got a clean license, if so I'd just take the points and fine. I looked at doing a pace a while back when I got quite rightly tugged by camera for 87 in a 70mph.

IMHO its more hassle than its worth. I couldnt be bothered with it. It was my fault I shouldnt have been speeding.

According to the DVLA website HERE points stay on a licence for 4 years (assuming they were for speeding) but the 'totting up' procedure is over any 3 year period.
