The 14 days applies to the NIP to the driver OR the registered keeper, clearly the first NIP will have either gone to your company or whoever provides the cars for them.

The 14 days applies (with a few exceptions) to the first NIP to the registered keeper. As this is a company car this may be the company, or may be a finance/lease company.
Who is the NIP addressed to? |

That is just within the range where you will probably be offered the option of a course, provided you have not done one for an offence within the last three years. Failing that, a fixed penalty of £100 + 3 points.

Who is the NIP addressed to? So I've had confirmation that the registered keeper is my company and the first NIP that was received by them was dated 05/03/18 - a full 27 days after the offence took place. Because they are the registered keeper, the NIP would have gone straight to them and not the lease/finance company wouldn't it? Which makes this massively outside of the 14 days. The NIP is addressed to my company, who have replied with my details as I am the driver and forwarded the NIP on to me. Thanks This post has been edited by Luke87: Thu, 8 Mar 2018 - 11:33 |

It is almost unheard of for a NIP to be sent out of time. Your company should have returned the NIP after naming you, not forwarded it onto you.

I would be asking to see a copy of the v5c to be sure.
How old is the car? |

They returned NIP giving my details but forwarded me a copy of it. I'll ask to see a copy of the V5C - if they have this does that mean that its almost certain that there were no copies sent to anyone else first? It is a nearly 3 year old vehicle. |

If they have the v5 and all particulars are correct then you have the makings of a defence. (But the driver needs naming regardless when you receive you own s172) Some forces do send reminders and do not necessarily state so either. Even if this is so then it doesn't provide a guaranteed defence as the burden is on the recipient to show that the mail did not arrive - assuming the 1st NIP was issued correctly. I'd still be surprised if the company actually are in possession of the v5 but let's confirm before you shoot yourself in the foot big time. -------------------- RK=Registered Keeper, OP=Original Poster (You!), CoFP=Conditional Offer of Fixed Penalty, NtK=Notice to Keeper, NtD=Notice to Driver
PoFA=Protection of Freedoms Act, SAC=Safety Awareness Course, NIP=Notice of Intended Prosecution, ADR=Alternative Dispute Resolution PPC=Private Parking Company, LBCCC=Letter Before County Court Claim, PII=Personally Identifiable Information, SAR=Subject Access Request Private Parking - remember, they just want your money and will say almost anything to get it. |
