Full Version: Ticket Error & Expired Licence

Got a roadside fixed penalty this morning for overtaking normal huge queue of traffic going into my place of work town (on my motorbike), done it a million times but this morning the nice man pulled me over and gave me the ticket and 'produce your licence' instruction.

I think I'm just going to pay up and eat the 3 points because my photo licence is 3 years out of date.

My questions are:

1. What's the likelyhood of the £1,000 fine being imposed when I produce my expired licence for my endorsement?

2. The Officer made an error when writing my address on the ticket, mis-spelled the street name ~ I read in the press often that appeals are often upheld on technicalities like this or am I just living in cloud cuckoo land?

Hard to comment without all the details - there's nothing fundamentally wrong with passing a line of traffic, what offence is alleged?

You are sadly indeed in cloud-cuckoo land in respect of basic admin errors - won't help at all!

Care to tell the whole story?

What was the alleged offence?

Others will be along in regards to the expired licence.

In regards to the small error - there is no 'appeals' process other than requesting a court hearing. This detail can easily be corrected and the penalty will be higher at court.
