I know I was speeding now but I genuinely thought the road was a 40 milelimit. I drive daily with my job and always try to stick to the speed limit.Unfortunately I did not know this area. 1 st occasion I was on a trip to Chesterwith my sister 2nd was on my way to course in Chester.Only trips to the area in over 5 years. I really need advice on how to reply toNIPs due to being in the process of changing my name on driving licence. DVLA suggestedsending my current number with a covering letter. Is this right?

Hi all I need advice ASAP please. I have received 2 NIP one week apart for the same road. 1st says I was doing 36 on a 30 the other 38 on a 30 road. The road is Hoole road Chester. I think the area I would have been speeding is where the road changes for national speedlimit to 30. I only noticed this yesterday when on this road again. I had assumed it was 40 limit. The other problem is I need to change my name on my driving licence as it is still in my maiden name. Do I send off forms with my current licence number or wait and change it for my new name.

thanks for the advice. will ignore all letters.

I'm new to all this so please bear with me# I visited my local shopping centre today where there are 4 outside pay and display car parks. I payed and displayed in one car park, went to the cashpoint and as it was raining drove to another car park nearer the shops, about 500 meters away:oops:. As I had already paid in the 1st car park I left this ticket in the window on display. When I returned to my car a parking attendant was issuing me a ticket.When I asked him why he said I had not paid and displayed I pointed out the ticket and he said it was not valid as this was a private car park and I was displaying a council ticket. The ticket machines signs etc. all seem the same although I will go and take some pictures tomorrow. Do I just ignore this as other threads have said or do I pay the £40 within 10 days after which it will increase to £80? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
