Speeding and other criminal offences / Re: Late NIP for company car 30mph in 20mph
« on: Today at 11:35:02 am »
Thanks Andy.

Interesting potential defence strategy. Is it prudent to look into the TRO? The man putting up signage felt oddly coincidental. It's worth noting this was within the 'Zone' which is furnished with traffic calming measures as you suggest is appropriate for a 'zone'.

A quick search has yielded:

- TRO: https://store.traffweb.app/leeds/documents/parkmap/sched/Dated%20Citywide%20Map-Based%20Speed%20Limit%20Order%2030%201%2025.pdf
- Map of the tip of the street where the alleged office took place: https://ibb.co/qLYSxdY4 (yellow highlight the tip of the street, though it continues onto another map page).

- My unskilled interpretation (please rip apart) is that the TRO refers to *speed limits* not a *zone*. New
Street is signed as a zone: https://maps.app.goo.gl/mvpkqYCWnS8JAxuu5
 
- And for completeness: here's the man putting up repeaters on an adjacent street which still appears to be in the same 'zone': https://ibb.co/gM6k7RHf


The driver will be identified today.

Speeding and other criminal offences / Late NIP for company car 30mph in 20mph
« on: Yesterday at 11:14:00 pm »
Hey everyone,

Long time lurker and hold-over from the old Pepipoo days.

Before I start, everything is alleged.

This is in a company car, lease company is the owner and on the V5C.

Timeline:

3 March: Alleged offence of doing 30 in a 20mph zone around half a mile from home.
4 March: Lease company received NIP
9 March: Lease company responded nominating me
1 May:  I received the NIP


The camera van was parked in a residents permit zone on a residential street, the speedo checked and, you can fill in the blanks...The location approximately here heading toward Bradford Road. https://maps.app.goo.gl/ZaYZp3suRMbbCrhY6

As an interesting aside, I noticed a man in a high-vis with police style markings putting up new 20 mph repeater speed signs just a day or two ago around the village.


I have the NIP, I need to respond within 28 days, I'd appreciate advice on how to deal with this.

I've not posted the NIP yet but can do so using an external service.

I last did a SAC in 2019.

Very many thanks.
