    Great informative video thank you, wished this was around a year ago when I received my first speeding ticket in over 37 years of driving!
    I was doing 36 in a 30 where the allowance was 35 (+10% + 2mph). I travelled that road everyday to work and there would frequently be a mobile speed van but on this occasion it was set up on the other side of the junction (never seen it there before) so was uncertain if this was legal as the time from me coming round the corner to the van was much shorter.
    The prosecution letter said the camera was calibrated and everything was set up as required by law and so you take that as gospel but this video would no doubt have helped me check the facts.
    Hope it helps other people, thank you.

    Great video.
    I was caught doing 42 in a 30. I had missed the signs due to poor weather and i thought it was still a 50 zone. I admitted the offence and accepted £100 fine and 3 points, submitting my details online.
    3 months later I recieved a summons to court as i had allegedly failed to provide my details!
    They refunded my original fine took me to court and gave me £700 fine and 4 points!!
    Money spinning scheme and lies if you ask me.
    Anyone else had this happen to them?

      @andrewpawley3872 not surprised. Should've just ignored all correspondence. No contact no contract!
      Unless the police put your door in and physically arrest you. They only have 6 months from the alleged offence date to prosecute you. Otherwise it gets binned

    Thanks for this good advice and well overdue video, I had a few issues prior to viewing this with the Police 'Manned' camera alleging that I was doing 37mph in a supposed '30 mph zone? apparently, its a Dual carriageway, the well-known (signage prior to now removed) was actually 40 mph, however, according to them it is now '30 MPH' How is that even enforceable? it is just a money-making racket to entrap gullible motorists, surely they need to be held accountable.

      I too was issued NoIP for same thing, however I was doing 46mph on supposedly to be 40mph. Do you by any chance live in Morden and was travelling up towards St Helier hospital direction on the A297 St Helier Ave and I was done by traffic light camera at junction of Middleton Road?
      That dual carriage was 40mph they removed the sign sometime between Aug 2022 to May 2024 as shown on Google map. They removed the large 40mph circle sign with small rectangular sign with red background and white writing saying there is 'new 30mph speed limit in force' which can be missed because a tree branch is partially covering the signage.
      Also, I normally turn left at the traffic junction but this time went straight because other route had some road works which have extended my travelling time waiting the traffic.

    20mph school road very early on a sunday morning, how to avoid the worst if it was around 20mph over possibly less. Read about a good few of those situations.

      The Court, Criminal Procedure Rules and CPIA dictate when (and in what circumstances) evidence should be served. It is essential to a fair trial process that evidence be served in a timely fashion to enable you to consider it, take advice on it and, if you wish, challenge it. The CPS consistently fails to comply with its statutory disclosure obligations or directions set by the court - presumably a result of underfunding and maladministration. As a defendant, you are entitled to challenge the admissibility of evidence that is served late. What are you supposed to do with 50 pages of evidence served one week prior to trial? Is it fair to allow the CPS to rely on evidence in these circumstances? Most courts would agree that it is not. Adjournments are not appropriate in these circumstances either.

    I would just say speeding slightly above the limit is not breaking Common Law, only statutory laws, so we dont have to pay them.

      No, if you ignore the nip then you’ll be prosecuted for failing to to furnish driver details, if you respond to the original nip and then ignore subsequent correspondence. It will then go to court and it will be in your absence.
