It Was An Emergency

Question:

Driving not in accordance with licence

I received a summon for the above offence. But it was not an intentional act, I drove because of my partners and babies health. Although I have pleaded guilty by post, am still awaiting decision. Is there any way the matter can be resolved out of court?

Paula Says:

I’m afraid not once you have been summonsed the court has to deal with it unless the prosecution agree to withdrawn the case. Were you summonsed for no insurance as well?

If you drove due to an emergency you will have a special reasons argument – but you need to attend court in person and give evidence on oath to stand any chance of avoiding the points. Tell me what happened?
