Location error on NIP
« on: »
Hello.

On 22/8/25 I received a NIP informing me that I was speeding at 43mph in a 30mph zone. I remember driving that road and I can only assume that I thought I was in a 40mph zone and made a genuine mistake. I am not a fast driver. I believe I was caught by a manual police speed camera rather than a yellow box camera but interestingly they wrote the incorrect road name on the Notice. 

They have on the notice 'A25 GODSTONE ROAD, BLETCHINGLEY' and '7567 - Site Location Code'. The Godstone Road turns into High Street but I was photographed at the other end of the High Street, about 700m along the road from the end of Godstone Road. 

Does this make any difference? I have to fill in the NIP form stating I was the driver on that day but can I contest this for them to hopefully drop the intended prosecution because of the location error?
Thank you
