So your pal tries to fight the FPN on the grounds that wrong road mentioned.It can be tried in a letter back that pal was not in such and such a road at the material time so could not commit the offence. May work - one nevr knows. They may not accept.
So they take the matter to Court.
BiB in box "I swear by almighty God etc etc" gives his evidence in which he names the correct road and that from personal contact ID"s pal as offender and his unlawful conduct.
Defence jumps up and attempts wrong road route.
CPS then jumps up and asks the bench to amend the summons (if the wrong road has been quoted on that too).
Bench have the power, on this technicality, to grant an amendment to correct road name and then left with the convicting evidence of BiB.
Guilty what?
Pal either puts up or shuts up.......such is the way of the world.

Bib, using a mobile while driving - well answering it, putting it down then parking to continue conv. but guess bib just saw her answer it..
as dvd rightly points out the "slip rule" would allow amendment for the clerical error.
looks like your pal will have to take this one on the chin im afraid...

For answering a 'phone whilst driving she ought to consider herself fortunate not to get points, does she not consider other people at all ?
Think of the children for God's sake!
I got done for this the other day and I have to say I was most impressed with the attitude of the bib. He was perfectly friendly and told me straight away I was going to get a ticket. He gave me a few of the "scare stories" you always get when pulled for something I listened intently and nodded sagely, obviously passing the attitude test as he spared me a producer and sent me on my way.
Although I don't make a habit of talking and driving (having a hands-free on my normal phone) I have been much more aware of my behaviour since, completely different from my Scamera experience.

yeah but its perfectly fine for people to smoke and eat n all that whilst driving, not condoning it but does it take that much effort to answer a phone for 2 secs.. not like she was having a full blown conv. like you see some people doing , even having arguments and stuff whilst driving
This is what gets me - I can have a hands-free conversation whilst holding my hand to my ear like a pretend telephone and, as long as I'm deemed to be in control of my car and driving safely, I am within the limits of the law.
So why the difference when I replace my pretend telephone for the real thing?
(Don't worry about answering this one... I already know the answer
