Speeding fine (14day rule)

[Chalked]

Hi all

nice letter landed today. A notice of intended prosecution!

aparently, I was doing 35 mph in a 30. So where in hull area.
The offence took place on the 29th January, and I have just received the letter. It is dated 24th February. Well after the 14 days.

anyone ever contested one of these and know what to do?

thanks.:confused5:

I've heard of this, you weren't in a hire vehicle or a something difficult to trace? Get a brief.

And let us know how you get on.

how much do you have to pay

 

[Chalked]

how much do you have to pay

£100 and three points.

It's the points that will cost more on insurance in the long run!

if its the first you should get the option of a speed awareness course

I`ve done 2 of them, better than getting the points.

Which 14day rule are you referring to?

 

[snowhead]

No such thing as the 14 day rule.

 

[Leo21]

No such thing as the 14 day rule.

They have fourteen days to issue a notice of intended prosecution, (nip) After that its void.

 

[REDSAW]

bare with me, i can sort that!

 

[Leo21]

Does an NIP have to be Served Within 14 Days?

Check this out.

I got a letter through the post around the beginning of December for doing 39 in a 30 or something like that, I couldn't do the speed awareness course as I was 1mph over the speed the threshold for that. I never bothered ringing them to say it was me driving and I've just left it and heard nothing since, I'm now thinkin that maybe I got it after the 14 day rule and maybe they can't chase it up or hoping so anyway

 

[c.gas]

I'll probably get a chase up letter tomorrow now won't I
