Speeding Ticket

Hi, I received a speeding letter through the post on the 11th August and I sent it back on around the 20th August as I was not driving. This letter was just received today to the address of the driver at the time. Can this be challenged due to the timing? 

Another thing that strikes me is that usually they provide images of the offence straight away but in this instance, they aren’t going to provide it? I do not recall being flashed (I was in the vehicle at the time)?

I have attached images of both the initial letter as well as the follow up letter.

Thanks in advance!

    This forum concentrates on parking issues, you need to head over to a forum called Pepipoo but do not try to register using  a Hotmail e-mail address as their system does not like them for some reason.
  • If you were in the vehicle at the time then you knew who was driving. 

    You are therefore knowledgeable of the driver so you either take the rap for them or spill the beans.

    Why have you not read the OP, - they have already responded to the police as to who was driving,  the OP is asking if the delay in the follow up letter can be used to challenge it.  

    Presumably you can't help them and the advice to register with Pepipoo is the best advice.
