Types of Road Traffic Offences We Defend
Dangerous, Careless & Inconsiderate Driving
Driving that falls below acceptable standards can lead to serious penalties, including disqualification or imprisonment. Whether you’ve been accused of careless driving, dangerous driving, or driving without due care and attention, our legal team will assess your case and build a strong defence.
Speeding Offences
Speeding penalties range from fines and penalty points to driving bans, depending on the severity of the offence. If you’ve been caught by a speed camera or stopped by the police, we can assess whether there’s a defence available or work to reduce the impact on your licence.
Driving Under the Influence (Drink & Drug Driving)
Driving while over the legal alcohol limit or under the influence of drugs carries severe penalties, including automatic disqualification and possible imprisonment. We carefully examine the evidence, from breathalyser procedures to medical defences, ensuring the best possible outcome for your case.
Using a Mobile Phone While Driving
Being caught using a handheld phone while driving can result in six points and a fine - enough to cause a ban if you're a new driver or already have points. We can assess whether the charge is justified and explore possible defences.
Totting Up – Too Many Penalty Points
Reaching 12 or more points on your licence within three years usually results in a six-month driving ban. However, in some cases, we can argue for an exceptional hardship defence to help you keep your licence. If you’re at risk of disqualification, speak to us as soon as possible.
Driving Without Insurance
Driving without valid insurance is a strict offence, meaning even unintentional lapses can lead to penalties, including a £300 fine and six points - or worse in serious cases. If you’ve been accused of driving uninsured, we can help you challenge the charge or minimise the impact on your licence.
