Hi

I am awaiting a reply from the officer who issued it,

Am sorry if it doesnt make sense but I will clear it up a bit more.

I got a letter 2 weeks ago ( the one in chat previously ) saying I am being prosecuted for failing to provide driver details from the previous letter they sent me in march.

The officers reply to my email when I questioned the offence was “poor driving standards” so something  minor am guessing.

You said to wait to see what am charged with but isnt that letter that I posted in the group showing am charged with failing to provide only? Guessing they had no evidence for the poor driving standards

Thanks for ur reply

I am trying to contact them as I’ve seen people ask for it to be resent and therefore avoid all the court stuff

If you have received an SJPN you won't avoid all the court stuff. That has already begun and the SJPN is your notification of that.

Are you sure that the SJPN mentions only "Failing to provide driver's details"?

I am surprised that the police sent you a "Notice of Intended Prosecution" (NIP) saying they plan to prosecute you under Section 172(3). I'm even more surprised that they say they are doing so in accordance with the requirements of Section 1 of the Road Traffic Offenders' Act as no NIP is required for Section 172 offences.


Yes this is the only letter I received, what would ur advice be onto what to do next, I have a lawyer call coming up to guide me as well

Yes i sent my license and address details back in the same brown envelope it came in as thats what it said to do with the address written on the back of it, I sent it by first class
Do you still have the paperwork stating this?

I had replied 2 weeks later and had sent the letter back to the address on the back as stated first class from the post office in Scarborough.
What information did you provide when replying?  They usually provide a correctly addressed envelope for responses (just add stamp).

OP, what is the "letter" you have now received? Is it a Single Justice Procedure Notice"? If it is, there is no point in contacting the police, as it's out of their hands. Please confirm, so that we can provide proper advice.





Yes its that letter

What would your advice be?

Thanks for ur reply

Yes I was the driver at the time

I have only received one SJPN letter stating that I am being prosecuted for failing to identify driver
But the alleged offence is not on here.

I will provide a photo later

My only problem is i haven’t got any proof currently.

I have made effort to contact the police about it which I hope shows me trying.

Yes it was the s172 letter, I had filled it in and sent 2 weeks after

What am trying to get across is that I had sent it back first class, as tracked is not a legal requirement  and had received another letter stating that they havent got it and am due to a court a summons.

I had returned it to the address on the back as it states to send it back in the same envelope it came in


I had emailed the officer from that letter and he just said the same thing from the letter that am due a court appearance.

I had no reminder or anything just that nip letter

Is my best option now to contact the traffic bureau ?

I have contacted a lawyer aswell as to the best next steps but need all the help possible

I am contacting regarding a letter I received about failing to give information of the driver.

I had received a letter which was asking if I was the driver at the time about 2 months ago and I had replied 2 weeks later and had sent the letter back to the address on the back as stated first class from the post office in Scarborough. I don’t know if it wasn’t meant to go there or not but I am sure it was.

What would the next sensible option to proceed be, do I contact the police themselves and ask kindly for a 2nd letter and for it to be tracked this time?

I am actually frustrated as to what to do
