Good evening everyone!

I am hoping you guys might be able to offer some learned advice, please.

A friend was stopped in Norwich by an unmarked police car while riding his motorcycle for an offence of contravening a bus lane. He is adamant the marked lane hadn't yet started, so intends to ask if any video/photographic evidence was available, as the car was video equipped. (I know it is after being stopped by the same car a long while ago, but that's another story! wink )
He has been waiting patiently for over 3 weeks now.

He was issued a ticket, which states on the reverse that he is not to do anything more until he has received further information.

So my question is, is he likely to hear anything now?
Further, is there any cut off date from time of offence to receiving further information?

Many thanks in advance,
Darren

Thank you for the replies.

I asked my friend and he says there is no time, just a date on the ticket.
There is no phone number either.
