If a policeman stops you and issues you with a speeding ticket you have a chance to argue that you were not speeding.
If a policeman stops you and issues you with a speeding ticket you have a chance to argue that you were not speeding. Make sure that you do so politely and listen carefully to why the policeman believes that you were in fact speeding. The more polite you are the more likely it is that the policeman or woman will not actually issue you with a fine. Plus, if they do issue you with a fine you will know on what evidence that fine has been issued. Should you decide to appeal the fine, using a speeding barrister, this can be very useful information indeed.

If you get your speeding ticket through the post and do not plan to appeal. Pay it as soon as you can. Failure to pay promptly will only result in a larger fine.

If you were not driving the vehicle at the time the ticket was issued pass the details on of the driver that was driving at the time within 14 days. If you do not do so you could end up paying the final fine and with 6 points on your own licence.

You can appeal a speeding ticket you get through the post. If you plan to do so quickly contact a speeding barrister.

Finding a Good Speeding Ticket Barrister

Until fairly recently if you wanted to appeal a speeding ticket the best option was to find and instruct a solicitor. They then went out and found a barrister to represent you in court. However, recent changes in the law mean that you no longer need to instruct a solicitor. Instead you can go out and find a speeding barrister to represent you in court yourself.

An online search for speeding ticket barrister will find you a few to choose from. Start by speaking to those that offer a free consultation. Look for a barrister that is able to represent you in County Court as well as in the magistrate’s court. That way if you have to go to appeal you will not have to change barrister.
