Speeding and other criminal offences / NIP over 14 days
« on: Yesterday at 06:38:00 am »
Hi,. I'm looking for a bit of advice about a speeding Notice of Intended Prosecution.
I receive a NIP 33 days after the offence, the Police are saying they posted an original NIP three days after the offence, but that it was returned by Royal Mail marked "Return to Sender". My V5C address was correct, I was the registered keeper, and I was living at that address. They haven't provided any evidence of the original notice or its return, but they've offered me a fixed penalty or the option of a court hearing.
Does anyone have any experience with this type of case, or would anyone recommend challenging it.
