# FIXED PENALTY AND SPEEDING CHALLENGE LETTER
Date: 11 June 2030
Parties: Daniel Cole and Westshire Police Central Ticket Office
## 1. Purpose and parties
To Westshire Police Central Ticket Office: I am the registered keeper of vehicle BX19 DCL. Notice NIP-55118 alleges 36 mph in a 30 mph limit on 24 May 2030 at Broad Street, Worcester. I return the section 172 driver-identification response separately and on time; this letter addresses the proposed fixed penalty.
## 2. Facts, scope and terms
The notice reached me on 13 June, 20 days after the alleged offence. I ask you to check service records and the first notice to the registered keeper because section 1 of the Road Traffic Offenders Act 1988 may matter, subject to statutory exceptions. The 30 mph sign was partly hidden by foliage; dated photographs and dashcam footage are enclosed.
## 3. Process and responsibilities
I request disclosure of the calibration and device records, photographs, location plan, speed-limit order and evidence of lawful signage. The image appears to show a similar vehicle but does not identify the driver. I will not make a false nomination; if prosecution is pursued, the court can determine admissibility and guilt.
## 4. Evidence, records and safeguards
Please confirm whether the speed-awareness course remains available and whether the fixed penalty may be withdrawn for review. I understand accepting a fixed penalty is not the same as an ordinary appeal: a person ordinarily challenges the allegation by declining the offer and responding to a summons or Single Justice Procedure Notice, with possible costs and penalty consequences.
## 5. Review, escalation and outcome
If convicted, I would ask the court to consider mitigation only where legally relevant; a clean licence and employment impact are not automatically a defence. As a delivery driver, six points could threaten my role, but I do not assert exceptional hardship unless proceedings require evidence and the statutory test is met.
## 6. Reservations and practical protections
Nothing in this letter admits speeding, identifies a driver beyond the lawful s.172 response or asks the police to ignore mandatory procedure. I will comply with court directions and seek advice. This route differs from contesting a council PCN or a private parking charge.
## 7. England and Wales law and completion
Please reply by post to 4 Orchard View, Reading RG1 8EA or email daniel.cole@example.co.uk as alternative methods. England and Wales criminal procedure applies. Yours faithfully, Daniel Cole, 11 June 2030.
