Traffic Signs
Jun 11, 2010
Access only
My wife has been fined today for driving up an access only route.
This access only route runs parrallel to a main b road and she was using this road as a short cut to get to work.
There is a road sign saying no cars or bikes exept for access.
This road is a slip road and is used for residents. Thip road does however join back on the road which runs parrallel?
Is there a way of avoiding paying this fine?

Im afraid not if she accepts contravening the traffic sign. Has she got any points? Have they said she has to take 3 points as well as the fine?
If she rejected the ticket and took the case to court she would get convicted if she admitting using the road as a cut through and would just get higher fines and court costs on top.

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.
