Hi, I got caught speeding at 43mph on a 20mph road in Flintshire. I admit this is pretty fast, it was a complete lapse in judgement as it was really dark and an A road which I assumed to have a higher limit (I haven’t driven in wales for years and also forgot about the 20mph limit)
I replied immediately to the NIP on Saturday and have spoken to the police responsible for the NIP who have informed me that additional information has been sent in the post today explaining that they have passed this over to the courts
I’m just wondering if anyone has any info on typical waiting times for these once the authorities pass over the info to the courts, I’m going travelling on Jun 12th and won’t be back until August 29th, I have already spent thousands planning this as has my girlfriend. I would hate to get a court date for during this period and lose out on all kinds of money etc as a result
Does anyone know whether pleading guilty online/post would mean I wouldn’t have to attend court. I do have mitigating circumstances to not receive a ban but don’t know whether they would suffice, I have to drive my nan to hospital for chemotherapy on non-hodgkins lymphoma and I also need my licence for the travelling as it is a road trip, my girlfriend does not have a licence
I have never committed any other offence and had my licence for 10 years, I feel so stupid as it was a genuine lapse in judgement and I never usually speed, I admit I am wrong and just hope that I wouldn’t have to attend court
any info or help to stop me stressing is really appreciated
