i have a few words for you!
the 12th? i was nowhere near there on the 12th, if the bill teaches us anything, it's that we're all being watched, all of the time.
if you spend 2 hours on the roads, you get caught by an average of 100 cameras! |

Well if you wernt speeding in the first place you wouldnt have this question on here! just one question, people seem to moan about police catching speeders like you, how would you feel if as a result of your speeding you knocked someone down and killed them? still complaining? well you deserve your fine and points, pity they wernt higher penalties |

Listen to this statement. I was not speeding on the 12th. I was speeding on the 13th. Was speeding not illegal on the 13th when it was illegal on the 12th?
Pay the fvcking fine and quit putting ME in danger by speeding on the same roads I have to navigate.
Whiner.
EDIT: You must be whining if you're trying to split hairs to get out of paying by pointing out a mistake in the date on the citation. I may be a fcukwit, but you're a whiner. And your own Heather Mills would have ten toes today instead of five if it weren't for vehicles displaying excessive speed, police or not. Think about that for a moment, why don't you? |

Go to citizens advice, but at the end of the day, you did break the law. You are lucky you didnt get the new 6 points penalty. It will cost you more than £60 to argue your case. |

The fine and lost points still stand, you were stopped by a policeman, who has enough evidence to prove it happened on the 13th. despite his error of writing the 12th. on the ticket. |

The mistake on the date is irrevalant. You were still caught speeding. |

If you were on radar or were paced by the officer, no you do not have a case. You know if you were wrong, so pay the fine and be done with it. I respect people who take responsibility for their actions and those that don't I say, "grow up". |

The ticket is not valid if the date is incorrect. You will of course need to prove that in court. Maybe you have datatrak or made a phone call which reflects where and when. |

You could test it in Court, and you must be able to prove where you were on The 12th at the time the ticket was issued. |

if you have already paid the fine and sent your licence off its to late to challenge it. |

You may be able to get out on a technecality although you would have to take it to court. If you are under a certain level of income you are valid to legal aid and therefore all legal fees would be paid for you. You should maken some inquires.
Good Luck and don't speed again. |

Usually I don't give much hope to someone who was ticketed for speeding. Ya does the wrong, ya pays the fine. But why let a free gift go by? The ticket is a legal court document. If it says you committed the offense on the 12th, and you can show your alibi on the 12th, then by all means, take the gift.
Sure, cops make mistakes. This one is not the first, nor will it be the last. And what about all the speeders they DON'T catch? It won't be the End of the World if you get away with one speeding offense.
On the other hand, as someone pointed out, if you already paid the fine, then the case is over and done with; you pleaded guilty. |

I've never been caught speeding so i don't know what a speeding ticket it is but regardless of whether the date is incorrect if you've put your signature on it then it is and will be a valid ticket that you stand no chance of denying.
Best thing to do is check online and see if there has been similar cases involving this type of mistake happening.
Maybe you can argue that your speeding was down to a momentary lapse in concentration as long as your speed was a maximum of 5 miles per hour over thespeed limit at the time of being caught. |

Under the police and evidence act the date has to be the date of the offence. If the officer put the wrong date on the ticket and you can prove that you were some-ware else, then tuff luck for the police.
Often people will say you did the crime then you should take the fine. However if we as citizens of the UK allow the police to carry out there powers in a shoddy way then what is next.

if you can prove you were somewhere else on the 12th they will have to throw it out |

if and only if you can prove it, then you may be able to get it cancelled. But the onus is on you. |

I think, you can get him in court |

Regardless of the date, you were still speeding. So pay up and shut up |

Possibly.
