Speeding

Speeding is one of the most common driving offences. 

It is easy to let your speed creep up on motorways or find yourself edging over the speed limit when you are late getting the children to school or making it on time for work. 

In most cases, being caught speeding will result in a Fixed Penalty Notice and endorsement points on your driving licence.  However, if you have totted up several points already, this latest speeding offence may push you over the limit of 12 points over three years, resulting in you losing your licence.  And if your speed is well over the speeding limit or you caused injury or death due to driving too fast, you will have to appear in Court.  Therefore, if a speeding offence is going to cause you to lose your licence or have to attend Court, it is vital that you speak to our Motoring Solicitors immediately.  Our team has an in-depth knowledge of police enforcement technology, ranging from GATSO cameras to in-car police VASCAR systems.
