With a rise in the number of speed cameras and
increased road traffic policing, even careful
drivers can find themselves facing an unexpected
prosecution. As Road Traffic Law experts, our
team has an exceptional record of successfully
contesting motoring prosecutions and where there
are mitigating factors, obtaining excellent results
for both traffic offences and alcohol-related
matters.
12 points need not automatically mean a 6 month
disqualification. Depending on the circumstances,
we may be able to advance either a defence to
the charge or on conviction, raise a hardship
argument to prevent disqualification.
We have also successfully defended insurance matters
and prosecutions for failing to notify.
Whilst exceptional hardship arguments are not
available for alcohol related offences, there
may be defences or special reasons arguments available
that can protect your licence. Examples include
a spiked drink, procedural errors, emergency situations
and the need to reposition a vehicle.
Where the standard of driving is in question,
the Prosecution mainly rely on Police Officers’
opinions. Often, this can be challenged by calling
our own experts to examine the circumstances of
the case.
If you fear you are in danger of losing your licence,
