Speeding and other criminal offences / Re: Burton Road Measham The Most luceratve Zapper in the game. Camera Collaboration query

surely they would be included in any Evidence pack to prosecute?
Probably - but you're not at that stage?

...but the certificate refers to the system as a whole and you have a reference to a component in that system (in this instance a particular sensor - probably displayed on the exit  photo they have)

As you note in your previous post - it would have been logical to ensure the two references align.  (But it's not a defence, especially due to other reasons hinted at above)

Speeding and other criminal offences / Re: Car in front, not me!???

The post-processing of the snaps may have resulted in incorrect car being identified.

But, as Andy notes, we can't comment on thin air.

Speeding and other criminal offences / Re: Speeding NIP - wrong location

1) The location being between the Merrion Avenue and Pangbourne Drive should be slightly more specific as there is another junction in between with Dovercourt Gardens.
Yes, there is a junction along that road with Dovercourt Gardens but there is no requirement to reference it.  The start and end point are roughly 700m apart - the location is merely directory and that is not vague enough to prevent the driver recalling whether they were there (or not).  It would take just over 1 minute (or perhaps less depending on how much over the limit) to traverse it...

2) There is no junction of Merrion Avenue on Dalkeith Grove as that junction, Dalkeith Grove actually become Du cros Drive, so the address is technically incorrect.
It does appear Dalkeith Grove ends roughly 60m before the junction with Merrion Avenue (Indeed becoming Du Cros Drive) but see the answer above.  Arguing the driver was disadvantaged by such a small technicality is optimistic.

Are the above issues above enough to get the ticket quashed?
As Andy summarised, No.

Speeding and other criminal offences / Re: Slip error

The timestamp difference is unlikely to be relevant unless it's wildly different.  (Without knowing the specific device it may not be GPS synchronised anyway - 'proving' you were stationary at the 'exact' time isn't going to cut it)

It appears to be a corroborated measurement by a laser device without video evidence.  (That, in itself, is not fatal)

A virtually instantaneous laser measurement versus telemetric system with low accuracy and averaged measurements.  You would likely need an expert witness from the system's makers - they may well decline and may state the system is not designed for such use anyway.

It seems a was a frontal ping, so not sure of the relevance of items being towed?

A 'slip error' requires a smooth movement of the device across a flat surface to fool the device into reporting a higher than actual value - a 'complex reflective profile' (if even scanned) would most likely trigger the reading to be abandoned.  The officer's statement will obviously be a factor.

That's why I said 'potentially'...

Anyway, no harm in making enquiries now if you want to put it (hopefully) to rest.

Either you have been prosecuted without your knowledge or you haven't.

Given they have to commence the prosecution within 6 months of the offence* there's no additional risk in contacting them.  If they had 'forgot' to prosecute then it's too late anyway for them to start…


* there's potentially two offences in play.  (Any s172 allegation (driver nomination) would be roughly 1 month after any request - but also seems past the cutoff to prosecute)

As noted, you can always ask but they are under no obligation to respond at this time…

Does the given location give any clues?   Such as A123 opposite The Street?

...but especially being on 9 points and reliant on my licence to ensure my husband who has 0 points took them, as I say on offence definitely was and the other also of they were his.

Just to be clear - you are being prosecuted and not your husband.  (There's no formal process now to 'pass' the prosecution/points to him even if you can prove he was driving)

I'm aware you saying that this adds weight to the claim that the NIPs did not arrive.

I'm trying to find my V5 docs now, but I have owned the car since 2021.
You definitely need to find them and ensure the details are 100% correct.

It be unusual for 2 NIP's not to arrive if all is in order.

...so the answer is a fixed penalty of 3 points £100.

Hi, Just wondering if you do not mind saying what happen, I too have just received a 94 NiP on the A45 in Northamptonshire. Just fill out the driver info but also drive for my job.  Thanks
The craftily named 'READ THIS FIRST - **BEFORE POSTING YOUR CASE!**' sticky answers your question.  (98 is quite different to 94)

Work is 30 miles away. It's a special needs residential school where i am a senior care worker
Then you would need to major on the impact on others.

Would the school provide any assistance?  (Detailing such impact)

The log records who has the car on a daily basis not per hour or minute
Then the log records who is the person keeping the vehicle?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Not a lot to say until a NIP/s172 arrives.

As you do not appear to be the RK then it could be many weeks before you hear.
