3 points for driving without demisting my windows?

I was told to, by the admin 

I presume it’s because they don’t want their users to be identified and if a case like this go to court, what I said here can be used against me.

And evidence I was hoping to present was the fact that I saw the officer’s sign to follow him and stop my vehicle? 

a light up sign is different to a person in dark clothing that you may not have seen - that is the point. saying I saw a brightly light up sign does not prove that you could not see everything clearly.

Also for the police to have stopped you in the first place, something must have happened or it was very obvious your vision from the car was impaired 

An officer is a human, just like you and I 

if he believe something to be true, that is not always the objective reality. I am not denying that the windows weren’t demisted but I am denying that I was being intentionally careless which is the premise of this offence, hence the term ‘without due care’

The system IS rigged to a degree. Firstly, the report of a police officer generally takes precedence over anyone else. Secondly, the only people who are able to argue the minutiae are generally legal professionals. For which you will need to spend a lot of money on, which is why footballers use Nick Freeman.

It's a lower court, but higher up on the ladder than county court. It's where a man who is his own lawyer has a fool for a client kicks in.

Deliberately and intentionally switching off the demisting system won't go down well on court - or anywhere else for that matter.

And the OP asks why he gets 'negativity".
