Hello guys,

Hope all is well.

I am the hirer of the vehicle in question and have received the below letter from CPM and being offered 40% discounted rate or ability to appeal this ticket as its within it's first 14 days of receipt.

Can we assume the following;

1. The Notice is in the hirers (OP's) own name and not the name of the hirer company?

2. That no other documents were served in the same envelope as the notice?


The notice shown is not PoFA complaint - the wording of a Notice to Hirer differs from that of an NtK. A NtH must also reference the original NtK.

It is not a Notice to Hirer:

'..you have been named as the driver of the vehicle..'

OP, the rest of the whatever it is notice pl.

On the face of it, this has nothing to do with PoFA and is a simple matter of the operator pursuing the alleged driver and trying to shoe-horn this into their pre-printed notices!

Agreed, but then further on it says "if you were not the driver blah blah blah"

If it is a hirer vehicle then the hire company have either i) simply passed the notice onto the hirer directly, or ii) nominated the hirer as the person responsible for the vehicle at the material time.

That does not mean that the hirer can assume to be the driver.

The slam-dunk way out of this is through a POPLA appeal.

We definitely need to know more background info.
