Cumbria Speeding Ticket
« on: »
Hello,
I was driving a Merc Vito to Ukraine and was recorded doing 70mph on the A1 dual carriageway section, totally forgot it might come under van speed limits 😡
Anyway I received the NIP and responded with all the required information and received a Proof of Postage from the Post Office. Today I received another letter from them stating that they have not received any response to their first letter. I have a dated proof of posting slip. Should I fill in the form again that they resent me, or can I tell them it has been returned with the required information and I have proof of postage?
Thanks

For the purposes of the police sending out a NIP or incorporated s. 172 requirement, proof of posting creates a rebuttable presumption of service - which is rebutted if the court finds that the notice was not delivered. The requirement only being satisfied when the notice is actually delivered.

It would be surprising if posting alone satisfied the requirement to provide the information for the return leg.

I am responsible for the accuracy of the information I post, not your ability to comprehend it.

OP, if they're giving you another opportunity to provide the info, the pragmatic course is to do so rather than get into an argument. I'd be inclined to post it (with proof again) and then phone them after a few days to make sure.

BTW are you sure it's Cumbria?
