Wait 14 days and you'll soon find out

Actually, it can be up to 6 months and they can still prosecute for it.
A mate of mine got one thru a couple of days before the 6 months would've been up
A NIP has to be sent within 14 days, in circumstances in which an oral notice is not given at the time, then either a summons or a written notice of intended prosecution must be served within 14 days.
If you have not been given the notice within 14 days (ignoring the day of the offence) then they cannot proceed against you, unless your car is a company car or is owned by a finance/lease company and who need more time to ascertain who was driving because of it not being owned by an individual, but the NIP still has to be issued within 14 days to the registered keeper.
