Quote from: andy_foster on 06 Feb, 2026 12:17It depends. Some areas explicitly state in the SJPN bundle that if you plead guilty to the speeding, the s. 172 will be dropped. Some times that is done without prior agreement or notification. Sometimes they will simply accept your guilty plea for the speeding and proceed to try the s. 172 charge.As regards probability, you've gotta ask yourself one question - "Do I feel lucky?". Well, do you, punk?To be honest, I really need the s172 to be dropped (the letter genuinely never arrived). It's Sussex Police, do you know what is their position on this? There is nothing in the SJPN that says that if I plead guilty to the speeding the S.172 will be dropped.
