Says who?


The police and courts don't use any special delivery or tracked service when sending out their NIPs and summonses.

And the difference is ..... if you dont respond, the next thing is a knock at your door by a police officer.

Will the public go door knocking on a magistrates court ??

HO87 is right if it's evidence ..... must be signed for

OK

Where do you get that from?


If you don't respond to a speeding NIP you can expect another letter in the "normal" post!

No, if you have proof of postage and its sent first class it's presumed served after two working days. If it works for them to send it out then it works for your reply. Else you could just bin their paperwork and get off with any offence as you've not signed for it.

The police won't come knocking they'll just do you for failing to name the driver.

Well that's a really simple answer.

They want to know who the driver is so they can deal with them for the speeding offence.

But we already know that ?

The OP already accepts she was speeding, the point is missed

Explain your point then because the police don't know who was driving, until her partner names her.

In a real world what you say might be correct but try telling a magistrate that, proof is required
They have heard all the excuses under the sun, and proof of posting is not proof it has been received.

You are giving the wrong information by saying
"Else you could just bin their paperwork and get off with any offence as you've not signed for it."

The police will knock on your door instructed by the magistrate
the so called proof of posting means nothing

The reason on this forum for saying get proof of posting is that PPC's may reject "signed for" mail but a normal letter is just delivered

Even proof of posting does not mean it was received

Where you are wrong, is that Magistrates Court do not presume anything

oh dear, nobody said that did they ?
you are living in the PPC world and county courts, not the world of magistrates used by the police

Carry on as usual
