Time limit for NIP - can I now relax?

[anonymous-user]

Friday 23rd July I was doing somewhere between 55 and 59 (reading on speedo vs GPS) in a 50 limit when I realised a scamera van could see me. Once I saw it I slowed so not sure of the speed when he would have zapped me.

Today is 17 days later and I have not received a NIP.

Can I now relax in the knowledge that, as it's well past 14 days, one is not coming?

It's my car, I am the registered keeper, all documents are in my name at my current address so there is no "normal"reason for any docs not to reach me directly.

One thing I can't recall us having discussed, is the possibility of misdelivery by the Royal Mail and what effect this would have should it be later delivered, say by hand, to the addressee. This sometimes happens to me, where my mail is delivered to a lesser numbered house or one with the same number in a road with a similar name (and v.v.).

The only independent witness to a delivery is likely to be the post person; and if you're not at home when the mail arrives, or you open the mail some time after delivery, when the post person has left the area ...

Working form home I am always here to collect from the postman. Also I have NEVER had any post go astray and the postman knows who I am.

Thought I was going stupid there!

No, my fault - too many things on the go at once..

So, confusing as some elements may be in this discussion, am I right in thinking I can relax now?

How do you know? Or, like me, do you sometimes need a 'tongue-in-cheek' smiley? - Streaky

Well let's just say I am unaware of this ever happening. Nothing I knew was coming has ever failed to reach me. But, as you quit correctly state, I can never really know.

Did you know the NOIP was coming? - Streaky

I have no idea if a NIP is/was coming or not - that really is the thrust of my question. It's very possible that I was only doing 55 when the scamera van could see me, hence no NIP coming. It's also very possible the guys with the camera were not watching/having tea/shutting down after their morning shift when I approached and therefore I was not photographed at all. So my question about the 14 days was to ascertain if, after 14 (now 18) days, I received nothing then can I assume nothing is coming. If you get my drift?
