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 have no recollection of the incident. But just received this NIP saying I contravened a red traffic light. My wife is the registered keeper so it was addressed to her but I was driving the car. A lot of people have been caught by this camera with no recollection of going through it on red including my wife. The NIP seems to have taken 7 days from date of issue to arrive in the post and was not sent recorded delivery. Im 50 years old and never had points on my license. Can I fight this or should I take the line of least resistance?
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)? - No
Is the NIP addressed to you personally? - No
NIP Wizard Recommendation
Based on these responses the Wizard suggested that this course of action should be considered:
- Do nothing!
The police are not requesting the information from you, they are requesting it from the person the NIP is addressed to.
Wait until you receive a NIP addressed to you personally, then come back here.
