Speeding ticket with wrong details
I have been given a fixed penalty notice but there is a mistake (wrong location, registration number etc), what can I do?
If you have been given a conditional offer for an offence such as speeding and you have noticed that there is a mistake on it, such as the wrong location, registration number of the vehicle, or time/date, then you can contest the matter by taking it to court. Even if the ticket is found to be invalid before going to court, the Police can still issue a summons for the alleged offence and you cannot then take advantage of the ability to pay the fine on the fixed penalty notice. We advise in situations where you are thinking of challenging a speeding ticket that you receive legal advice from our lawyers before doing so.
