Re: Speeding ticket
This must be equivalent to the S172, which you get along with a NIP if you are caught speeding in the UK, which requires you to declare who was driving at the time of the offence. Failure to respond and disclose comes with a minimum of 6 points and £500 fine. The reason is that the law can only prosecute the actual driver for speeding and not the registered keeper.

She faxed it back confirming she was driver (900E if you don't within 20 days) and is now expecting a huge fine, and they are huge here, I had one once.
Just wondered why they just didn't send the fine as most others seem to get.

However if like Neil and Christine Hamilton you have a canny lawyer and questionable memory, you can say you can't remember which of you was driving though accept one of you was. So the driver can't be fined for speeding because no-one knows who it was..............
