I mistakenly presumed a band B and C offence would be dealt with in the same way having received the first SJPN yesterday. I thought as both from Met they would be the same process. I have not had any speeding offences aged 50 so this process is new to me.

Both offences were with a mobile camera in the same location. Both notified to work who then notified to met police as I am the operator of the work vehicle.

Apologies Andy didn’t want to cause any issues and wasn’t bumping the thread. I am very stressed about the potential outcomes.

Agreed on the solicitor I would like to think I could put my points across. So plead guilty take my medicine on both counts. Can I ask for mitigation in terms of a ban due to my job (travelling sales) when I submit the online guilty plea mention sports clubs volunteering etc Should I wait to submit pleas in a particular order?Offence 1 27/03/25 42mph in 20mph zone- - Offence 2 19/04/25 34mph in 20mph zone

I understand having reread your first post thank you.So then should I plead guilty on the first SJP and ask for the second lower offence to be considered at the same time in court and appoint a solicitor to plead my case and hope for a good result big fine and points?

Thanks for the reply and info much appreciated.So should I return first SJP notice guilty Offence 1 27/03/25 42mph in 20mph zone probably 6 points £1000 fineSecond SJP when it arrives - Offence 2 19/04/25 34mph in 20mph zone hope for 4 -5 points and £1000 fine or if they are going to ban me they will ask me to go to court and wont ban me without a court appearance. These things seem to being dealt with very quickly from what I hear in London. I cant afford a driving ban I will probably lose my job but would like to save money and not use a solicitor.

Driving a company works car I have been charged with two speeding offences.Offence 1 27/03/25 42mph in 20mph zone- - Offence 2 19/04/25 34mph in 20mph zoneDeeply regret my actions and I have adapted my driving style in recent weeks.I believe these are a C and B band offence 6 points and 4 to 6 points for the lower speed offence. I have a clean licence and have received the first single justice procedure notice for offence 1 and must respond by the 2nd June.The second single justice procedure notice for April offence 2 is no doubt in the post. Images clearly show me at the wheel and I had to declare my driver details to due to work policy.I am concerned about a driving ban. What is the best course of action? Do I deal with first offence via on line guilty and take the punishment for the first offence then deal with second offence separately? or deal with both offences at the same time?I was then thinking I would return the SJP with guilty and request a court date for both offences at the same time and ask for exceptional hardship to maintain my licence for work. I pay the mortgage and half the bills. My son would suffer as I provide him lifts to sports activities around the country with extensive travel.I also volunteer at two local sports clubs which involve travel and giving lifts to young people so this would also be at risk if I lost my licence.  Can I obtain some references from sports clubs and my works manager to highlight these problems to help keep my licence. I presume I would need to prepare bank statements showing my mortgage payments and outgoings?Can I self represent at court or do I spend the money £1000-1500 (is this a realistic fee)? on a solicitor? What outcomes can I expect ? Thanks in advance
