.. its not for me (honest guv). I've been asked if there's any particular way of astutely responding when you get get a notice of intended prosecution for speeding, which'll help you avoid a fine and points.

Can anyone advise? I was of the opinion that the human rights excuse of not incriminating oneself was an urban myth.

I'm afraid its the section 172 question again. Its been tested a good few times in all manner of courts and remains law at present. I know of nobody that can get round it. Sorry if thats not what you wanted to hear.

There are several ways around the issue - most of them go from mildly illegal to highly illegal and thus to be avoided.


www.pepipoo.com is probably your best bit - but we are waiting for the results of a case in front of the ECHR so its all up in the air at the moment
