    best you tell us everything about the ticket you have.
    Form number, title, precise wording etc etc.
    Otherwise we are all just guessing.
    The questions that get the best answers are the questions that give most detail....

    Just a little update on this. My wife called the payment line today... we decided to bite the bullet. The payment line asked for a 16 digit reference. My wife couldn't find it on the fine 'slip' so ended up doing a live chat with West Yorkshire Police.

    They said there should be a 16 digit reference somewhere. Funny thing is that there doesnt seem to be a section for 16 digit reference anywhere. The person on the other end of the web chat suggested that the form might not have been filled in correctly and referred us to call 101 and speak to our local station.

    The interesting thing is that at the top of the slip it says 'PART 2 - Drivers copy'. Now I assumed that meant that part 1 was the bit the police person kept, but may be it means there was another section that should have been included but wasn't.

    Can anyone shed any light on this? I know tickets are different in different areas but would be good to hear what people think.

    Thanks.

    Here goes, I hope this blog post I've found will help

    Normally with these sorts of tickets the reference number is preprinted onto the top corner of the ticket. Or, some of the newer ones actually have documents inside of them, and you have to rip the bottom or top off to pull out the documents.

    Do any of these apply to you?
