NIP and identifying the driver
Discussion
Hypothetical situation...
You are caught in a speed trap and sent a NIP. You return said form having filled in the "someone else was driving" section with Mr X's details. The scamera partnership then send a new NIP to Mr X. Mr X then returns the NIP saying "It wasn't me".
Assuming you and Mr X stick to your guns, what happens next?

RK for failing to supply driver details
But with what evidence? Mr. X may be lying.
That said, I am aware of such a case in which a corporate RK was charged under such circumstances. The RK won, i.e. NG.

and purported driver for speeding.
There is no evidence of speeding against Mr. X. The RK's form is not evidence that Mr. X was the driver at the time of the speeding. The RK may subsequently give evidence to that effect if he was there, but the form itself isn't.
