was it a fixed penalty yeah?

have your tried calling/writing to the Central Ticket Office? might be worth seeing what they say!

if not your only real other option is to request a court hearing and putting forward your mitigating circumstances to the magistrates and hope they take a lighter view on a the matter :)

they send all the info to the Central Ticket Office to input and sort.

you can include Photo's in your mitigating circumstances, tbh you could just come away with the same £60 3points and court costs, but it's all down to the magistrate on the day!

you been to the citezens advice bureau? i'm sure they must have some guys clued up on motoring law that might be able to give you some advice?!

If you are going to contest any "minor" motoring offence NEVER surrender your license. They cannot make you if you chose to have it heard at court. The reasoning is, if you contest it, it is your belief that you have done nothing wrong, so hang on to your license :)

think the C.A.B might be online too, if not google your local one!

you can do court stuff all by post, alough i'd if you go in person it might look a bit better in court!

if you fail to surrender within them 7 days your basicly gonna get hit with it being registered with your local court as a fine and going up by 50% (depending on how they do things by you).

not sure what you would of been asked to sign other then the FP, maybe some questionaire thing to 'improve' policing.

signing the conditions of the fixed penalty i guess, the FP was designed to stop everything going straight to court, so i guess if you didn't agree to the conditions of the FP with the option to go to court they would just hit you with a summons and take you straight to court!

not 100% sure on that tho! :confused:

With any fixed penalty they ask you to sign it, which does not take away your right to contest it, as you may not have all the legal info to hand. Remember the police are only there to uphold the law, many don't actually understand the laws and there are many laws that contradict one another. If you choose to defend it, get a lawyer or a legally minded person to "assist" you. If you go to court question everything you don't understand as it’s your right to have matters explained in plain English (they hate that). If you don't you will be found guilty before you know it!

just though i would update this as it has been over a month now and i never did give the outcome.

When i went to the poilce station to produce my documents and contest against the ticket, the guy at the counter said i have the wrong copy, i acutally had the police copy, at the time i didnt realize as i was too annoyed the examine the ticked but correct it said police copy all the way around the outside of the ticket. so i asked the guy at the counter "surly this renters it void" and he said im not to sure ill send an email to the offering on duty and its down to him to get back in contact with me.

so its been over a months scince then i i havent heard anything so im hoping that he got theemail and saw the scenerio from the POV of a normal person and has let it go.

but rest assured if i do heard anything i will be going to court to fight it, and i still have the ticket to show it was incorrectly issued :)
