There is many things that are taken into account when fines are considered. They just arent plucked out of the air, there is attitude of defendant, previous record, severity of fine, failing to appear, co-operating with police etc... Thus if on the same day 2 people with identical offences and backgrounds where fined and one got a substantially higher fine than the other then it could be challenged.... hence the reading of the defendants circumstances by your solicitor when the fine is read out.
Thrush as said for £30 or whatever an mot costs book it and be safer or run the risk of getting done. If you have an mot its end of discussion.
tony inwas replying as i took the comment of people talking bollox as a comment based at me
what you type is obviously correct, i was pointing out that with that taken into consideration it means that the likely hood of matt being given a 1000k fine and also done for no insurance is sooo small
please dont think it was aimed as a dig with the
, that was just to highlight there are other curcumstances that are taken to it aswell
i am not trying to belittle you nor am i trying to make it as f you are wrong, you are not at all
cheers for the reply and the comment, if that was posted before ALL of use ( including me) had posted then we added the personal experinece then im sure the post would have been better laid out
i say for the sake of100 quid matt get a MOT, some times people aint cut out for "playing " the system and most cant handle when thet get caught,,,,,,,,,, thats the reason why i no longer drive with any imperfection as i ALWAYS shout the loadest when im caught and when i last got done and it was a UNFAIR trail it showed me just how unfair and bollox ths system can be
once again tony i appologise for offending you
