What relevance does the cars being EVs have?

And 6 & 7 mph over a 30 limit is not "just over".

Nobody is being smug or condescending - just warning of a possible hurdle.

I qualified the statement by saying I know it is not an excuse.  I ahve personally found EV's to take some getting used to in terms of accelaration, but to be clear I appreciate this is down to me and not an excuse.

Just over referred to the 9 points already on my licence, apologies I did not make this clear.

As for nobody being smug or condescending, I suggest you read the last sentence of BertB again.

I think the issue is this:

Her job means so overnight travel, so where that does happen I provide that care and there is no other reliable alternative.

This will have to be explained in some detail.

Hi,

Yes this is the issue.

I've recieved the images for both alleged offences.  All 4 photos for each face the rear of the car, so do not asisit in identifying the driver.

I forgot to add to the potential mitigation above, that I am a volunteer listener & leader for the Samaritans and would have to end this if I was disqualified - Does anyone have a view on whether all of the mitigation would prevent a ban?

Thanks for the replies.

I need to look in to the dates, my Wife could have been driving as it was around that time that she was waiting on her new car, but as I say I need to check.

In terms of exceptional hardship...

Loss of job.

I am in considerable debt that the job allows me to service, however without it I may need to go bankrupt or similar - Need to look into this.

My recently widowed Mother-in-law is cared for by my Wife, not in a full time capacity but she needs to visit her most evenings to organise medication etc.  Her job means so overnight travel, so where that does happen I provide that care and there is no other reliable alternative.

My teenage Granddaughter is an Athlete who competes on a national level, I am the only family member who can driver her to her pre & post school sessions, without which she would have to stop competing.

I'm of an age where being re-employed from a unemployed basis, may not attract the same kind of salary, so the chance of me being able to service the debt I mention previously could be a non-starter even if I do obtain future employment.

Hopefully this adds some colour to my enquire.

Thanks Again.
