Is it worth defending yourself in Court?

It is worth remembering that when you are given a Speeding Fine Infringement notice that your offence is ALLEGED and NOT PROVEN. As you may understand the courts are inundated with speeding related cases and as such many clients wait for up to 12 months before their court appearance. During this time you can still continue to drive. This time extension might prove invaluable to your employment, business or lifestyle. Perhaps you are on the roads a lot, maybe a taxi driver, or courier van driver and perhaps you feel that its time to reconsider your vocation or lifestyle. This is where taking your case to court can help, you could use this time to make important changes to your life, maybe to look for alternative employment or learn a new skill. All of which might not be possible if you immediately pay for your fine and have accumulated sufficient demerit points to invalidate your license.

The reality is that many people are losing their driving license, it is no longer simply high speed offenders but instead ordinary people who simply find themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time.

At Speeding Fine Consultants we understand that the majority of drivers do not intentionally driver in excess of the speed limit but sometimes find themselves in a situation where just a few kilometres over the give speed limit has put demerit points on their license. This is why we do not represent excessively high speed offenders, our aim is to simply assist motorists win their case in court against fines that have been issued unfairly.

The problem we are all faced with when we receive a Traffic Violation Notice is that most of us immediately assume that we have done something wrong and in most cases we simply go along to our local transport office, pay the fine and suffer with the addition of demerit points to our driving licence. But the reality is that all Speeding Fines are not always issued fairly and correctly and as a result many innocent drivers are facing the hardship of increased insurance premiums due to speeding fines. Sadly on the roads, world over there are people who abuse the speed limits and risk danger to not only themselves but also their passengers but other motorists and pedestrians. These are not the motorists we are actively trying to assist. At Speeding Fine Consultants we simply offer advise gained from many years experience about how to defend yourself in court if it looks or appears that your speeding fine infringement notice may have been issued in fairly.

Although the prospect of court may seem daunting the reality is that the courts are there for everyone's use, not just for the prosecution and making use of the legal system is the only way to beat unfair speeding fines. Most clients of Speeding Fine Consultants feel a real sense of personal achievement after attending court and not backing down to a fine that in many cases has been issued unfairly.

So, Is it worth defending yourself in court? At Speeding Fine Consultants we think YES it is worth standing up for your moral and legal rights and we offer the support, guidance and knowledge that you need to represent yourself against an unfair fine.

I have already paid the fine, can you help?

Unfortunately once you have paid the fine then you will incur any demerit points that have been issued.  The only way to appeal against the Demerit Points and your Speeding Fine is to take the case to court without making any payment.
