61 mph in a 30 mph limit - court summons..?
Recieved 2 x NIPs on the x. The first was from a mobile speed van at 44 in a 30 zone (x). I remeber this and hold my hands up. The second was a hand written NIP alledgedly travelling at 61 in a 30 zone on the same road 8 days later. I was on the road but i can't be at all sure that I was speeding and certainly didn't see a camera or PC.
I rang and spoke to the PC who has told me to confirm I was driving and to send off the first completed NIP for a fixed fine and then complete the next and send that in to him personally. Im worried that Im going to get a ban for 61mph. Should i ask for evidence or will this make things worse for me? Help , thanks

The 61 in a 30 is a very high speed and you wont get a fixed penalty offer. You will get a summons to court where you will be at high risk of a ban. You are off the scale of the magistrates sentencing guidelines which only go up to 60 mph in a 30 limit.
Would you like my help? I help over 95% of my clients avoid this type of ban and I will be happy to assist.
Come back to me if I can help further and we can have a chat. Do you need to be able to drive for your job.
