Ask who for the V5? Why, would that make a difference?

Thanks

Because the name and address on the V5C at the time of the offence are who the first NIP are sent to. Remember, all they have to go off is the registration.

That first NIP is the one that has to be within 14 days.

Your employer will almost certainly not have the car registered to them. It will be registered to the lease firm.
If that's the case, then the lease firm received the first NIP in time to reply to it, naming their customer - your employer - and the second NIP be sent to them by day 18.
They then had 28 days to reply naming which employee they believed was driving. In a large firm, it will be the co.car admin, perhaps at head office, who will have initially received that.
They then replied within 28 days, giving the details of whichever sub-office or department is responsible for the pool car.
That admin person will then have received their own NIP, checked the car log, seen you signed it out at the relevant time, and sent your details back within 28 days.
You then receive your NIP.

Look, it's very simple. EVERY SINGLE person who passed their driving test in the UK has known this at one point.


Are there repeaters? They tell you the limit.
No repeaters? Are there streetlights? 30.
No repeaters or streetlights? NSL.
So what's NSL? Count the carriageways. One? 60. Two? 70.
Bingo. You always know the prevailing, enforceable speed limit, within a few hundred metres at most.



And, to pre-empt... That's for cars/motorcycles/small vans. Bigger stuff differs.

That’s really helpful and succinct.

I passed my driving test in 1978 and drive up to 15k miles a year. I had one SP30 in 1990 and been clean ever since. BUT seriously have never heard the term ‘repeaters’ in the context of speed limits. I’m not being sarcastic and am keen to keep my knowledge up to date..What is a repeater?

TIA

Y'know as you drive through a 40 or 50 limit, there's small regular reminder signs of what the limit is at the side of the road?

Those.

If there are streetlights and it's NSL, then it needs to have (/) reminders.
If there aren't streetlights but it's 30, then it needs to have 30 reminders.

And once again, unless the road in question is a motorway.

But not all motorways are national speed limit.

But motorways are the opposite of 30mph areas. They are NSL unless there are repeaters showing otherwise or in 'Smart' Motorways.
