Quote from: FuzzyDuck on 14 May, 2025 17:06Sorry but that is lodd of codswallop. Someone (might be at your company, might be at leasing company) has likely supplied the wrong name to the police. The police can only work with the information they are supplied. You have been given good advice on how to deal with this.I thank you for your advice and I have taken it and done what I think is the right action, I have notified the Police of the mistake, I can not change who made it or help them if the police decide to punish them. But I have been straight up and honest and will take the consequences.

Quote from: BertB on 14 May, 2025 09:43So you don't dispute that it is you driving your vehicle for the time and location of the offence?No as I said its all correct except for my Surname. This is a game we play, with US on one side and the police on the other, Their are rules that have to be abided by both sides. Sometimes one side will score and sometimes the other, but if that goal is off side then it doesn't count.I believe that in this case the police are off side and their goal should be disallowed. 

Ok well thank you all for your advice on this, I read through the NIP sent to me and all though it says that only the person it is addressed to can answer as does the web site the QR code takes you to, There is facility to tell them that their details are wrong and how. So that is what I have done. I was kind of hoping that their mistake would render this null and void but in reality that's only a dream. To answer some one else's question I have zero points and can afford the £100 fine I will get or a speed awareness course if they offer. Ive been driving over 50yrs and have and all ways and will all ways consider these things as an occupational hazard.

Quote from: disgruntchelt on 13 May, 2025 08:56I suspect your employer put the wrong surname on the s172 they filled in. By doing nothing, the police are likely to issue a SJPN to mr wrong surname for speeding and FTF in about 5 months time.  At that point replying no such person at your address should see you in the clear. The company could be prosecuted and fined for filling in the S172 wrongly.  Of course in the meantime they might go back to your employer when they get no response and if the incorrect name gets spotted you might get a new S172 request but no longer be in time to be able to take a course or COFP.I see, so is there a time limit for them to take action, I know the NIP has to be issued in 14days which it was but is there another time limit.The question still is, Do I just ignore this for now or do I reply saying not known at this address ?

Quote from: The Slithy Tove on 13 May, 2025 08:55There's "quick", and there's "lacking sufficient information".Is this the first notice regarding the alleged offence, or has an NIP been sent to the company and then they have named you (or someone else)? What I am asking is, has your company messed up and got the name of the driver wrong, even though the address is yours?Ok I dont really know the answer to that But I am guessing that the police have contacted the company who would have given them the driver details. Weather the company have supplied the wrong surname or weather the police have read it wrong I could not say. I am wondering if the company also supplied my licence details in which case the fault would lie with the police.I am only an agency driver and have been with this company for a couple of years, its a great job and I wouldn't want to jeopardise it.  

Hi Guys,  I'll make this quick. I have just received a NIP for speeding in a company vehicle. The NIP is all correct except it has the wrong Name on it, The right address but a totally different surname. It says "This notice should only be actioned by the person named above" and that not me. What should I do please. 

Well I really dont have the ability to comprehend That but thanks for trying to explain it.All a mute point now as I have held my hands up and will take the medicine, hopefully a speed awareness course. 

Thanks again, As I said its been a long time, I have just admitted the offence and its quite interesting reading , you can view all photo's and calibration certs online, Things have definitely moved on, and I guess theres no 10 percent plus 2mph any more either.

Thank You for the prompt reply, I suspected this would be the case. Time to Suck it up Buttercup. 

Hi, First time poster looking for a little advice.Today I received an NIP for speeding in a variable speed zone. I actually remember doing this so I guess thats it. How ever I have a couple of questions.1) The tickets issue date is the 20.01.25 and the date of offence was 05.01.25 so thats 15days, I remember they only have 14days to issue an NIP so im thinking..... This is probably because it was a company vehicle and the NIP first went to the employer/registered keeper who provided my details.  Is this correct or are they a day late Issuing it. 2) As I said I remember this happening and saw the camera flash in my mirrors, I actually thought I was in a 50 but as I passed the gantry I saw it was 40 but all too late, when it flashed I checked my speed and it said 44mph, Im driving HGV so calibrated speedo but the ticket has come in at 46mph. Heres the thing I have the whole thing on dash cam and was wondering if there is any way to confirm my speed from the footage.Finally Im not to bothered about a speeding ticket its an occupational hazard and its been a very long time since my last one. BUT I do like things to be right, I play by the rules and so must they, so if they have issued this incorrectly then I will dispute it. Ive attached the NIP for your attention.
