Default hubby done for speeding 6MPH over limit

My husband has just got a letter saying he is going to be prosecuted for speeding. He was 6MPH over limit,allegedly, he says he was not so we are going to fight this on a matter of principle. Thanks to CAG I am not afraid of courts now but would like some honest advice.He had been driving for 41 years and has always had a clean licence. He said that he saw the mobile speed camera which clocked him. If you think we will be wasting our time please be honest and say so. regards Hils

Hi hilaryfrances!

Perhaps U might be better to ask a nice friendly MOD who happens to be passing, to move your Thread to this Forum for advice...

There's also a site called something like 'pepipoo.com' or co.uk - not sure - that specialises in speeding/parking fines.

No friendly mod, so you'll have to make do with me! Thread moved to the traffic forum.

The site Dave refers to is PePiPoo: Helping the motorist to get justice, Hilary and they have a wizard you fill in with the details and based on your answer, it gives you the best way to proceed. Good forum to use.

Bookworm and/or other mods.
This is a forum about Parking Tickets/Traffic Wardens, why is this message still in here and even more to the point, why after seeing it havent you moved it to somewhere more appropiate ? (surely the website, if you have moved it will remove the message thread as well !!)
Surely as Mods, you understand the role and/or get the website doing what it should.

Since at the moment, we haven't a forum for traffic itself, this is the closest relevant one, which is why I have moved it in here from where it was (in the Bear Garden). If in the future, the forum owners decide to create a traffic section, then I will move this type of thread in it. Thank you for your concern.

Peeps...

My link points to moving the Thread into the DVLA Forum.

There are other Threads already in that Forum re: Speeding etc, cos peeps get Points on their Driving Licence for Speeding via DVLA.

Thanks Milktrayman
Maybe bookworm could move it as a Mod, rather than regular members linking to it.

Stopped for Speeding

An French priest is driving to Paris and gets stopped for speeding in Lyon.
The gendarme smells alcohol on the priest's breath and then sees an empty wine bottle on the floor of the car.

He says,"Sir, have you been drinking?"

"Just water," says the priest.

The gendarme says, "Then why do I smell wine?"

The priest looks at the bottle and says, "Good Lord! He's done it again!"

Apologies to the OP
...Just couldn't resist the co-incidence to previous Posts in the Thread!...lol...

Well, since interesting pointed out a gap in the remit of the forum, we have now changed the name of this one to expand beyond parking offences.

Apologies to OP for hijack of her thread.

Oh, gods, but then I have to nitpick because private tickets aren't offences as they're not criminal, and some Councils operate under decriminalised schemes...sorry Auntie Bookie... :o

PS - why does 'interesting' even care??

"Parking/Traffic" instead of "Parking/Traffic Offences"? Nice catch-all
