Can I still put across 'my story' without the witness statement?
You are flipping late but email it to the court and claimant's solicitors TODAY!PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Get it done , today , to both the court and the claimant2 -
I just found it as a tiny bullet point on the back. Jesus.
And yes I have the witness statement from the claimant. Can I use any of their material? It includes the sign which is the main point of contention.0 -
Yes , rebut everything you can , in writing , today
You cannot ambush them in court , one case was lost recently for similar reasons to yours , ignoring or not reading the court orders and then submitting late witness statements2 -
Any idea how to find the email address of the court?0
-
Or can I just post it into their letterbox? The court is literally 5 mins away from me.0

You have until 4pm for it to be accepted as arriving today but for a telephone hearing, email it all to the court (their email addy is obviously Googleable). Here is an example WS to adapt, BUT THIS ONE DENIES BEING THE DRIVER SO IF THAT IS NOT TRUE IN YOUR CASE, DO NOT COPY ANY SENTENCE THAT SAYS THAT!

Obviously the NEWBIES thread tells you about WS and evidence stage too and gives you some examples of standard evidence to append.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
