scroll down to NIP and read.

You need to understand the law and your rights and be prepared to fight and stand up to the fookers....

I would post my own experience as regards to the 14 days rule but my posts are mostly ignored so can't be arse.

Some pointers:

Take note of the date on the NIP and the date of the conviction.

If it genuiely arrives after 14 days then you will need balls to fights it....!

 

Temporary speed limits.
You should note that exceeding a temporary speed limit is a non-endorsable offence. This means that you can only get a fine, but not have any endorsements (points) applied to your license. Of course, like most things in law, there is an exception, and in this case it's national speed limits (ie. motorways and dual carriageways). If you exceed a temporary limit on a motorway, such as in roadworks, or the controlled-speed section of the M25, then it becomes an endorsable offence, ie. points. This information is in some dispute at the moment, but came from a traffic officer undergoing basic traffic training so I have no reason to believe that it's false.


Interesting

 

When i got banned in 1997 for clocking up xxx points i was sent loads of summons after the 14 day period, best thing to do is admit you were doing wrong, they dont like lies and the people who try to bullshit them everyday

 

No if the NIP is invalid and/or sent outside the 14 day period (without a valid reason) then don't accept it like a bitch. Stand up for your rights and fight it (in court if you have to), you may be surprised at the outcome!

 

oops

 

Yeah and as i was only a 17 year old shit head i didnt know the in's and out's so i let them do what they had to do

 

Are you calling me a "shit head" or referring to yourself ?

 

im gonna keep my fingers crossed it doesnt come at all but if it does then ill post again and ask your advice then, seems like a fair few people know the crack!!

 

Myself mate

 

Also,
If it does come make sure it was posted first class!

 

Put a 2nd class stamp over it

 

If you are the registered keeper of the vehicle and haven't received the NIP by now you're in the clear - so long as you have the balls (if necessary) to tell them it's been served too late.

If the vehicle is registered to someone else, so long as the feds issue the NIP to that person within the 14 days they can take as long as they like to get a new one to you, up until the offence times out at 6 months old.

If the RK does get one, and don't return it giving your details for the full 28 days they are allowed, that helps you get towards a time-out.
