I received a NIP for a car I share with a few people (Diesel estate, tow bar etc, DIY trips, trailer for garden waste etc)

Asked for a picture so the Scamera Partnership sent two pictures, the first shows the speed of the car but there's another car in the picture too, about 6 feet from the car I share. Is this allowable as evidence as it's really not clear which car is exceeding the ridiculous lower limit on the dual carriageway.

The second picture is either a close up zoom of the first, or a second frame from the video or whatever they use, but the driver appears to be wearing sun glasses and wearing a hat ! I don't posses a hat and nobody else who drives the car does either . . . certainly can't identify one of us from the picture.

I'm inclined to suggest they do me for the offence as I'm the registered keeper but I'm not admitting to the offence because it's obviously not me driving.

What's the best course of action ? So far I've declared me as the registered keeper as they know that already, but not signed anything.

Do I need to supply a list of the people who drive the car and let them decide who was driving ?

Thanks

Thanks, haven't signed anything yet. Any other advice ?

Is the photo showing two cars admisable ?

Nobody can remember driving it that weekend on that road . . . but then they wouldn't would they ! Bu**ers.

I'm going to suggest to the Scamera Partnership that I take the hit as there's no way we can identify the driver. I'm not going to admit to it as that would be pergery (??) but they've got to try for somebody haven't they. I guess if it goes to court then the picture isn't any good as evidence and I'm not going to admit to it, so there's no proof it was me.

I'm still wondering though about the fact there are two cars in the picture that shows the speed. Is this relevant ?
