Speeding

With the number of speed cameras increasing and the expanding resources available to pursue offenders, it highly likely that you will at some time be accused of speeding.

It will usually be alleged that you have been caught speeding by a speed camera or a police hand-held device, or you may have been followed by a police officer who has monitored your speed.

Whether guilty or not, if you have been accused of speeding you should instruct a solicitor who specialises in speeding offences as it is a myth that photographic or police evidence cannot be challenged. Depending on the seriousness of the alleged offence you could well be saved from having to pay a heavy fine or even incurring a driving ban.

In order to secure a conviction, a court has to be certain of the accuracy of any evidence produced by the police. You solicitor will examine this evidence to consider whether it meets the required standard. If it does not then the solicitor may argue that there is no case to answer.
