Driving without due care or insurance
Discussion
My builders nephew got pulled over driving without insurance.
He just got the papers through that they're doing him for Driving without due care and attention, plus No insurance.
Both fair enough, and he'll be pleading guilty by post.
They're bulgarian so don't really understand the whole thing, so I'm just wondering what is to be expected. I believe he's 22 and has an english license which he exchanged for a bulgarian one when he arrived in the uk about 9 months ago.
The story is that he took the other guys keys after he'd had a skinful to stop him driving, then went out looking for him and got pulled... He saw the police car behind him, got very nervous, and wobbled which is when they pulled him over.
Just wondering what the situation is regards fines and points? He doesn't have much money at all and is looking for work.

when I say I wobble, you're right, its a little more, the official statement on the letter says:
"pc noticed that vehicle xxx was driving slowly causing them to alter the speed of the police vehicle. The car then crossed over the white like and all four wheels were in the opposite lane. It then moved back to the correct side of the carriageway. The car then struck the nearside kerb. PC signalled for the driver to pull over"
No argument, clearly in the wrong, just wondering what will happen to the lad.
