Hello All,


Just set things out I have 9 points.

I have received an NIP for speed of 55mph in a 40mph at the notorious spot on the M6 Southbound between junctions 10a and 10. According to the NIP the offence was committed on the 20/02/2013. The NIP sent to me is dated the 22/04/2013, received on the 24/04/2013.

Can the 14 day rule be in effect here? The car is a hire car paid for and arranged by the company I work for. I plan to contact the hire company to see if and when they received an NIP/name driver for the offence.

Also, the letter arrived at my part time address, the hire car was originally delivered there and my employer has that address for me. However, the address on my driving license is that of my original address.



I would like to thank you all in advance for any help or guidance you might have.

No, only the first nip ( which will go to the registered keeper ) needs to be within the 14 days.

The 14 rule only applies to the first notice which goes to the RK - most likely either the hire company or even a leasing company before them. They do get it wrong sometimes, but it's rare for one to be issued late. The subsequent delays due to addresses are not relevant to the 14 days.

Don't understand your last comment about addresses -you now have the NIP?

Check the offence dates - for a totting ban is 12 points within 3 years.

Unfortunately too fast for an awareness course to avoid the points. If they offer you a CoFP you won't be able to accept it - the offence will have to be dealt with at court. A totting ban is for 6 months unless you can plea exceptional hardship -usually focusing on the effect on others.

Thank you for the prompt replies!

The NIP arrived at my girlfriend's house, because the hire car was originally delivered there I expect and my employer have that as my address. My main address, ie the one on my driving license is different to this.

You have the NIP that's the thing that matters, if you were thinking of pretending you hadn't received it then you would be opening yourself up to a whole load of offences that lead directly to jail so don't bother as its not worth it.

Start working on your exceptional hardship plea. For example, how would your company cope without you driving (possibly for 6 months) - is public transport an option? Could someone else drive?

Or rather, hardship on others carries more weight than hardship on yourself.

You have to attend court and give evidence on oath about your hardship grounds. Support your argument with documentary evidence wherever possible.

You can only argue hardhsip once in any three year period on the same grounds. If you can cope with a couple of weeks off it maybe better to try and establish exceptional hardship but then get a reduced totting ban - whic effectively wipes the sale clean. You would then be able to drive with a a degree of peace of mind. If you avoid a ban altogether you will be driving around with 12 points and you won't be able to relax until you get back down to 6.....

Achieving this take a degree of skillful adocacy and you have to be careful not to make the court feel manipulated...
