Totting bans penalty point ban
Apr 26, 2010
Second no insurance offence
I was stopped last year without insurance. I was stopped last week the same. Both times due to personal admin. mess up but no excuse there. I was given 6 points last year. If I am given another 6 points this will, I think, give me a 6 month ban from driving. I need to drive for my work. Is there anything that can be done here? I have not yet received the summons for the offence from last week.

Im afraid that you are going to be at risk of a 6 month ban if you are convicted of this offence. If it was down to a personal admin error then you are not going to have a defence and you are not going to be able to argue special reasons to avoid the points Im afraid.
Your only chance is going to be to argue exceptional hardship to avoid the ban.
Tell me about what you do for a living and who relies on you and I will be happy to assess your chances of trying to keep you licence.

Do not use online letter packs that claim to "Get yourself off a Speeding Ticket - Guaranteed!"
No two cases are the same. You must not mislead the police. A pro forma letter is not necessarily going to be relevant to the cirmcumstances of your case.
The road traffic police have seen them all a thousand times before.

This case represents our toughest battle to date. It was a battle at every stage involving Magistrates, District Judges, Court Clerks, Cps lawyers and Crown Court Judges. The argument was all about whether a road was public or private.
