These camera's are a financial trap for authority, they are disgraceful, hidden away in trees and bushes, I was flashed in a 30 mile zone for doing 31 😡, which I wasn't aware as I was more concentrating on the road and pedestrians being careful, and not on the speedo.

If the first time you realise you have been caught speeding is by your insurance going up and some points, that would also mean that you never received a NIP, and summons.

i got caught by a speed camera and sent back the form when it came though. surrey promptly lost it and sent me a letter telling me to fill it in again. i said no and they said they would see me in court. that was ten years ago and i and still awaiting my summons.

If a sign says 20 they will not go more than 20 under any circumstance, even if the road is wide and clear.

Ask for proof of camera accuracy, certification of officer taking speed details if by an unmarked car, also certification of speedometer. If a handheld unit same as car only handheld unit not speedo. If a roadside camera then ask for certification of it working that time and day, ask for certification of officer conducting test, also certification of equipment used to enable test of camera with certification of officer involved with testing.

But now they send the certification of the camera as standard.

If the first time you know of a conviction for speeding is when your insurance is increased, how do you know which court is involved to make an appeal?

It's the statutory declaration thing that I have difficulty in filling out.. I found 6 points on my license one day and called the courts and accused them of fraudulent activity as I did not receive any correspondence but was fined £800 and given 6 points. I don't see why I should be the one running around and doing admin

All great advice, but if you're not sure you committed the offence ASK FOR THE PICTURE. The last NIP I received was for a completely different vehicle. The Police's excuse was someone probably "GUESSED" the license plate incorrectly..?

What if you were slightly over the white line on traffic light and reverse as there was no one behind and was safe to do so. Will that still give a ticket ?

Firstly you don't go to a magistrates court for a trial where speeding is concerned, it's a hearing. Secondly you have the "right" to remain silent, it's the first thing a copper tells you when cautioning you. Thirdly you are innocent until "proven" guilty, so if you exercise your right to remain silent and the police have no proof of who was driving at the time of the incident, how can they find you guilty? I have used the right to remain silent defence in this situation and the case never went to court and I never received any points nor fines. On the subject of fines, I would like to point out that the Bill of Rights 1689 states under Grants and Forfeitures " All promises of fines and forfeitures by particular persons before conviction are illegal and void" Therefore if you haven't been found guilty of a crime (convicted) then the fine is illegal and void. That is why none of the fines issued for covid are valid. People only pay them out of ignorance of their rights and the fear of the consequences of non payment.

Hi,just have a quastion. Can I get fine and points from CARNELL highway maintenance safety camera van? If yes what will be the charge and how many points for doing 52 in a 40 limit

My advice is to carefully check the Notice of Intended prosecution and Section 172 notice. My paperwork alleged I was driving a car I’ve never owned in place I could not have been. At the time of the offence I was in the air between Amsterdam and home. You’ll not be surprised that there was no box to tick to say that I had never owned this vehicle.

If I pass a red light or cross a solid line into the bike lane, purely to allow emergency services through, am I still liable for prosecution?

what if you're on slow speed and cross the red light mistakenly? the camera catch you?

You say that there is no point making a stat dec to plead guilty due to increased costs, however surely in most cases it would be worthwhile for the credit for guilty plea, opportunity to mitigate, and in some cases an accurate indication of means to calculate a fine, which is based upon national average in absence.

Your video is really useful thanks

1:00 "Make sure that you respond to these letters as soon as possible..." Well, because there are various time limits in play, you maximise your chance of running the clock out if you respond to these letters as LATE as legally possible... ... and, points expire three years from the time the offense was committed - so if you take it to court that court date might be 8 months later, and you get your points back 8 months "earlier" than if you were faster in replying.

Section 172 states- "Where the driver of a vehicle is alleged to be guilty of an offence to which this section applies- a) the person keeping the vehicle shall give such information as to the identity of the driver." Also- "a person who fails to comply with a requirement under subsection (2) above shall be guilty of an offence." But as we both know, you have the right to remain silent.

This way your true speed is likely to be somewhere between 0 and 3 mph lower than what is displayed even if you happen to get a particularly low reading unit it should never show lower than true in theory. Naturally this is to protect the driver from the fact that relying a false low reading can get you into trouble but a false high reading wont as nobody is going to get prosecuted for doing 27 in a 30 for example.

It is impossible to make someone speak if they don't want to. Further, it is for the prosecution to prove your guilt - a static photo does not prove speeding.

@@thevillan2733 I need some advice. Not for speeding tickets but for running red lights and doing it due to fear of being physically attacked from the driver behind… would this be good enough reason to appeal or do they just want me to say yes I did it and still punish me regardless of my reason?

where's the contract ?

Here in Texas they had to take these red light cameras down. It is said you have to have a policeman at the place of the speeding. Some people were putting big black trash bags over the cameras.

I was 8 miles over the speed limit which was 50mph on the motorway fined £100.00 do a course £85.00 . A total rip off con . They should at first just caution you don't do it again and let you off but no . You can not remove human error . They just want your money . They don't care.

Look at it like I do. Simply the government now owes you £185.00 - find a way to get your money back. How they justified taking the money is irrelevant. How you get it back is irrelevant.

Got caught speeding on a road that was 30 down to 20 twice in 5mins now they want me to do a course and 3 points

Pay the bill and stop speeding.

Excellent. So what about if you are targeted by non-Police persons supposedly acting for the local Council and using speeds guns? I was slowing to the speed limit recently and was hit by persons in yellow high vis jackets (civilians) using a speed gun. I later received a letter advising me of the capture and that details would be kept for the next 12 months. Any further violation would result in possible prosecution! I thought only authorised Police Officers or in the case of Airside areas of an Airport, Airfield Operations Officers could target you for speeding ?

To answer your question based on 100% fact police officers do indeed use speed guns but all police forces across the country employ police staff (civilians) to man and operate the speed camera's and present evidence in court if needed. While on duty these camera technicians are classed as policing support officers so trying to obstruct then in their duties is now an offence and publishable by receiving a fine.

The community speed watch idiots can’t enforce anything. They wrote to me, so I wrote back and told the chief constable that the old boys hand was shaking around with what looked like the onset of Parkinson’s, and that unless they can prove the speed wasn’t affected by movement, they can get stuffed. Heard nothing afterwards

Does not apply, only where the authorities claim it applies, like democracy, we have the term but in reality have no democracy, only autocracy

You really don't answer the questions we need to know... 1. If you reply unable to confirm who was driving what happens? Do you get the fine by default or is nobody fined? If the latter then it's open to abuse which you should explain... 2. Your final point about extra costs is ironic because if the points were added without you knowing, what happened to the original costs when you were presumably convicted in absentia?!

The prosecution is expected to prove your guilt. Static photos do not prove anything related to speed (unless 2 or 4 wheels are off the tarmac of course). Further, the accused has a right to view the up-to-date service records and celebration records of the cameras used. In my experience, when this request for evidence is made, the matter quietly 'goes away'. Hmmm 🤔

When you receive a NIP it will normally have 2 or 3 options on it 1 take a speed awareness course (if eligible) 2 take 3 points and a fine or 3 go to court if you choose court you will be sent a copy of the calibration certificate, however you can ask for it at any point before you decide to what option to take, 99 times out of a 100 it will be calibrated.

It's cheaper to have a set of fzlsies

I just been done for 57 in a 50 this was due to preventing an accident which would have closed the A1 off. And backed up traffic for miles when I put in a defence it was dismissed which I am disgusted at. As you said offered 100 plus 3 points an awareness course with no cost or duration and Not a single venue within 150 mile of me. Looks like I have to take the points or take unpaid holiday to attend plus the petrol and parking fees no doubt
