Free Traffic Legal Advice

Up until around November, if an Out of Time Application was rejected by TEC,  the motorist would receive a letter from the Traffic Enforcement Centre stating the date of rejection and that NO REASON IS GIVEN and supposedly, NO REASON IS ON THE COURT FILE. This will now change.

TEC are proposing that the TEC Court Officer should include REASONS and that this can include the following:

1. That the motorist had provided no explanation why he was submitting his Witness Statement late.

2. That the motorist had provided no explanation as to why he failed to notify DVLA of the change of address.

3. That the motorist failed to provide evidence or proof as to why they had been absent from his home when the Order for Recovery had been issued.

Reading back on my post, I realise that I had only provided 3 reasons that the Court Officer may use to reject an Out of Time Application. The 4th reason is this one:

4. That the motorist had not provided proof or explanation why the statutory declaration (or witness statement) was served late.

Once you’ve done this, assuming you’re in luck, please then describe what happened on 3 June 2025, and post the Notice to Keeper and any other correspondence sent and received prior to receiving this form, and you should get help constructing a defence.

I should think "time into red" is an important factor. Plus I doubt they will offer a course if an accident was caused.
