Sorry but you have no grounds upon which to appeal this matter.
If you drive a car on a public road with defective tyres you will get three points. The only basis upon which you can avoid the points is if you can show that the tyres were not defective.
Its not a defence to suggest that you couldn't afford to fix then straight away or to suggest that they were going to be fixed in five days time.

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.
