Speeding and other criminal offences / Re: Speeding in a rental van - 36mph in a 30

« on: December 19, 2025, 12:59:17 pm »

So I did get the NIP, or course!!.

Received it I think 09/12/25 (dated 03/12/25)

36mph in a 30mph. Photo evidence shows a new set of average speed cameras, although this was at the start from the 40 to 30 reduction point. Looks like I was almost there!

I presume I just need to get this back to them and hope for a SAC. My last one was a 'Smart?' motorway one 6yrs ago. Looks like they got me in the leg, but I can limp off this time.

In the past I've posted these things back but would people recommend using the online option instead?

No point trying to wiggle out of it then I guess

Thanks both, really good info.

Colleague has definitely sent the correct details to the rental Co. I don't know whether it was an NIP to the company or a rental Co request. I think it's more likely the later.

I could just ring the rental Co myself but tbh I'd sort of hoped it might just go away. This theory is based on the fact that we hire vans loads and as it's not happened before I wasn't sure if it can just get a bit 'lost in the system' as it's rental. I can't imagine that's not the reality but if I want the SAC option (if that's possible) it looks like I need to watch that timing and potentially call the rental Co to allow the time to carry it out.

Hi, nice to see the new place Pepipoo. I like what you've done with it. Mostly just glad you're still around!

Details:
09/11/25 - Alledged speeding offence in rental van
18/11/25 - Informed by a work colleague that they had received a request for driver details for an alledged speeding offence (probably a camera) on 09/11/25.
18/11/25 - Told colleague they should just put my name and address down and I would look at what was going on when they contacted me.
09/12/25 - current date still haven't heard anything more.

So my question/s are should I just leave it at that? Ideally if they would have offered a speed awareness course I'd prefer that but is there going toi be a time limit on that? I imagine it might just take a lot longer than usual as it's via a rental company but they apparently have been sent my correct details and they are one of the largest companies so should be reliable.

Any thoughts on this please?
