In 2003 I was prosecuted for Driving without Due Care and Attention in the Magistrates' Court. Due to work i employed a laywer and instructed him to plead guilty etc in my absence. I got 3 points & £150 fine. Issue is the other driver had no lawful MOT at the time therefore is there a technicality to get this spent conviction of my record?
