LATEST COURT VICTORY – CHORLEY MAGISTRATES COURT – SPEEDING – TOTTING UP

Place: Chorley Magistrates Court
Offence: Speeding / Totting Up 12 penalty points on driving licence
Defence: Exceptional Hardship

Millars Solicitors represented Mr G who accumulated 12 penalty points on his driving licence. He therefore faced a minimum period of disqualification under the totting up provisions.
Powerful mitigation was presented to persuade the Court that exceptional hardship would fall upon the defendant, his family and his employer in the event of a driving disqualification. The Court accepted the argument and Mr G was not disqualified in the circumstances.
