NIP addressed to company
« on: »
If a NIP (S172) is sent to a company in the name of the company, then the company should as I understand it fill in section B of the form and nominate the driver (as the company cannot be the driver). The driver should then receive a NIP in their own name and complete it filling in section A. Is this correct? If the company fill out section A with the drivers details can this cause issues at a later date? Or do most Police take the pragmatic view that they've got the details they want?

Depends what Section A and Section B say.

There is no fixed format for the S172 reply part on a NIP, so section A and B is meaningless to anyone but the person looking at it!

I imagine in this case Section A is headed "Complete this section of you were the driver" and Section B is headed "Complete this section if the driver was somebody else". Or something like that.

Any s. 172 response other than from the driver admitting being the driver is merely information, and as long as the substance of the requirement has been complied with, that's all good as far as the law is concerned.

As regards what any given CTO might or might not consider acceptable - that's anyone's guess.
