  1. Hi, I had an accident with another driver who refused to give me details claiming it was my fault. It was in a very busy road with the road blocked and cars beeping so I didnt have time to write details down or get witnesses. Making a claim under the mobility scheme or for any insurer I'd imagine they would want full details, regestriation number of vehicle involved, date, time, video recording, witnesses. drawings. I feel my claim will be turned down instantly. My lease is expiring soon im getting a new car, however they will charge me for the damage I need a complete new rear bumper and 2 side panels got quoted £450 supplied and fitted side panels probbally £1000 for a new supplied and fitted rear bumper. What are my options? Thanks.
  2. saved between £5245 and £6245 going to the court and solictors win or lose. They charge for travel time per minute. Yes £0 is lower than £245. £2100 inc vat for investigation fee £2100 inc vat for not guilty fee £2000 sentence/fine fee. this is waved if court case won. You are forced as a taxpayer to pay the victim surcharge fee without your consent or they will freeze your bank accounts.
  3. Another reason to go the not guilty route if your case doesn;t involve drink or drugs but the insurance premiums increase in declaring points. Victim surchage is that not what my tax pays for theives they are. All offences are interviewed by a social worker who is the judge making the day only judges daily report on how to sentence you. They dont know anything about you and will not ask or see your history. Its based on a biased report against you if your a young male or ethnic origin. Experienced van drivers know more than judges and what is the likely outcome. The way i see it I was not guilty but played it and won by keeping between £5 - 6k in my pocket than theiveing authroties.
  4. They took 6 months to slap me with 3 points and money for their lunches. You get 3 points for going through a red traffic light or speeding so it's the same for a 90% overload on an axle. I'm going to claim hardship on the fine I will be dealing with an algorithm.
  5. Solicitors who don't call/email you back, Wrong incompetent information 500 miles of traveling cost possibly x 5 adjourned court appearance due to delays happen last time. Dealing with a social worker to decide their opinion what to write on the judges report. The judge doesn't have a clue about the case until the day. The courts are a theater we're games are played so you need to play to win.
  6. The police lied to me they said they would charge me £600. £355 more than a court judge! Then they sent me a letter 2 days later saying your weight limit is above our criteria? They didn't know what they were talking about in the first place. The court fine for being 10% overloaded on axle 1 was £37 and for being 90% overloaded on axle 2 was the same £37? There was a £90 victim surcharge? there was no victim involved? Such a serious offence a police officer hasn't seen in 6 years serving is this? Not even a court appearance? They don't want to spend a penny talking to you just give us your money and go. Android courts. Next it will be an app to plead guilty with a recorded audio about how severe your actions were.
  7. Been advised on here and elsewhere of prison sentence, community service, £100,000 fines, court appearence in the dock with the traffic commissioner grilling you about what you done, for being 2.71 ton over 77%. overloaded They slapped me with 3 points and £245 fine. Main reason I plead guilty was £2000-4000 plus lawyer fees to pay following a failed investigation then court fines ontop of it. Also, didnt have enough paperwork, eye witness, video/audio recordings to defend just my geuine reasons which lawyers/public ridiculed me for apart from 1-2 good friends who defended me. Lawyers gave me a very inaccurate picture like it was so serious you could face dangerous driving and case will be esculated to the crown court. oh deary me!, your better defending yourself in court and read some books. Reason, I am posting is to calm drivers fears over overloading. The 3 points come off automatically after 3 years from the offence date but they remain on your driving history record between 4-11 years depending on severity. They give you 14 days to pay your fine online. No court appearence they just want your money. They took around 6 months to complete everything.
  8. 6 people. Yes, they will be there. I will also be questioning the fact why serious overloading cases are not being heard quicker aint they not that serious enough?
  9. @Man in the middle Because its happen before with various types of police equipment when investigation was done it found software out of date, speed guns uncallibrated for months and years, happens every day thats why hundreds of cases up and down the country get dismissed. You seem to think the authorities in the country are flawless and technology does not fail. I'm not trying to escape the system rather set an example on what a reasonable person would view. My vehicle was 50% empty but their still calling it overloaded, but their weighbridge, which could be faulty as how can 1 axle be 10% overloaded and other 90% when the stock was virtually level? it should be 90% on each axle or very similar infact axle 1 should be heavier with the engine, diesel ad blue tank, driver weight etc I passed a refugee centre and the cops had reasonable grounds for suspicion that I was carry illegal immigrants/refugees as i suspect thats what they thought and wanted to inspect the load. They were also searching for drugs, then charged me anyway for a 50% empty van, which the scales showed overloaded. I've weighed some tiles on my own scale and done the calculation i was within the limits and around 5-6 people opinions are of the view the load seemed secure and reasonable. They laughed at their version of legal load 1/5th of the van. Also, the police visually monitored my vehicle for 10 mins driving, how could they possibly view that as dangerous driving out of 3 hours of driving? Unless I was swerving and hitting other cars or debris were hitting cars, or smoke was blasting out, fuel was leaking causing a hazard. All these discounts and deals to keep stuff out of court etc are designed for the innocent just to plead guilty and not make the judges work for their money making it a tick box numbers game rather than fairness and justice that happen 100 years ago.
  10. authorities are saying axle was only 10% overloaded front of vehicle including engine, large diesel and ad blue tank the driver, tools and rear axle 2 was 90% overloaded? The 2nd picture shows the legal imit they said. loading pix.pdf
  11. I have a right to be on here without your permission. I can ask in how many forums I want. Just heard from a traffic lawyer they can change the summary conviction to a criminal conviction to the crown as they see fit depending on the seriousness of the case it can be changed to a dangerous driving offence thats why I will plead not guilty due to the courts/authorities being a mess. The judge doesnt look at your paperwork unless you plead not guilty.
  12. my friend a civil engineer is a freeman of the land won 4 court cases. When he was being bombared by solicitors and even family that the authorities were gods and cannot be wrong. Got told first offence, dont do it again for 3 years and you wont be back here!
