NIP Details and Circumstances
What is the name of the Constabulary? - Date of the offence: - January 2018 Date of the NIP: - 2 days after the offence Date you received the NIP: - 3 days after the offence Location of offence (exact location as it appears on the NIP: important): - M25 Junction 15 to 16, Iver, United Kingdom Was the NIP addressed to you? - Yes Was the NIP sent by first class post, second class or recorded delivery? - First If your are not the Registered Keeper, what is your relationship to the vehicle? - How many current points do you have? - 0 Provide a description of events (if you know what happened) telling us as much about the incident as possible - some things that may seem trivial to you may be important, so don't leave anything out. Please do not post personal details for obvious reasons - I recall being abroad and arrived at Heathrow at 20.00 hours on 30/01/2018. My vehicle was parked at Heathrow airport and I began my drive home accompanied by my wife. I recall seeing a flash around the junction of 15 and 16 whilst passing. There were no red temporary lights and I am confident there was no temporary speed limit. I use this motorway regularly and I presume this is all to do with these smart motorways that are activated in regular national speed limit conditions? I also have a query on whether Iver is Surrey's jurisdiction and whether this can form a defence? I am certain that the area is covered by Metropolitan police or Thames Valley Police. The speed I was recorded doing was 106mph. This may well be accurate cannot be certain. I was caught using an automatic camera device. I have a clean license thus far. NIP Wizard Responses These were the responses used by the Wizard to arrive at its recommendation: Have you received a NIP? - Yes Are you the Registered Keeper of the vehicle concerned (is your name and address on the V5/V5C)? - Yes Did the first NIP arrive within 14 days? - Yes Although you are the Registered Keeper, were you also the keeper of the vehicle concerned (the person normally responsible for it) at the time of the alleged offence? - Yes Were you driving? - Yes Which country did the alleged offence take place in? - England NIP Wizard Recommendation Based on these responses the Wizard suggested that this course of action should be considered:

Although the alleged offence occurred on 30th January 2018, the NIP was received by 2nd February 2018 and completed a few days later. If court paperwork can arrive after the time frame than surely law has a time limit on this? Any prosecution has to commence within 6 months. That doesn't mean the defendant gets notification within 6 months. Previously the Police had to 'lay information' with the court within that time frame and the court would then send out the paperwork, usually within about 1 month. (So 7 months was not unusual) Nowadays, a different procedure is used (see here) but the net effect is about the same. You could contact them now to see if the matter has progressed - there's no risk in doing so. Otherwise, it could be another couple of weeks before you hear and you can check if everything is in order. All presuming they have the correct address and the post arrived of course. Thanks again for the reply. I didn't photocopy the NIP so did not keep the contact details. I believe it was Surrey constabulary. Is is them I should contact as I don't know what court they would use. |

See if you can find contact information for the camera unit on that constabulary as a first point of contact.

Thank all for the advice. I should be over the moon as I have called Surrey camera unit who have confirmed that the matter was no further actioned on 24th July 2018. However, it all seems odd as I was happy to plead guilty if necessary?!

In other threads Surrey have taken 10 months to send out SJP. So perhaps they or the courts have a huge backlog and they are culling some of the non-fixed penalty or course offences.
Hopefully the person on the phone didn't mistake NFA with not yet been sent out. |

Hopefully the person on the phone didn't mistake NFA with not yet been sent out. I understand the potential for mistake. She asked for usual security checks to confirm identity including vehicle VRM. She was very clear that the matter has been no further actioned on the 24th July 2018 and didn't have the reasons why so could not provide it. She confirmed the matter was now over and no prosecution was going to be followed. I am sure/hope that somebody working in that environment would understand what NFA means. |

If you really want to know why they dropped it you could put in a GDPR request.

Or more correctly a DPA 2018 request..... By virtue of the European Communities Act 1972, the GDPR has direct effect in UK law, the DPA 2018 just makes alterations to the extent that the GDPR allows national law to tailor how GDPR is applied. A subject access request is now made under article 15 of the GDPR (Right of access by the data subject), see https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/...679&from=EN (Yes sorry that site is pants compared to legislation.gov.uk but we've leaving anyway so who cares). If you actually read the DPA 2018 you'll see that nothing in that act creates a right to make a subject access request. -------------------- If you would like assistance with a penalty charge notice, please post a thread on https://www.ftla.uk/index.php
