  • Can anyone help?

    I'm not sure if I'm allowed to ask for assistance in this matter or whether it is against the rules, if it is please remove it, as I have no wish to cause offense.

    Today I was given a fixed penalty and three points for what I believed to be a minor traffic offense, I have tried to contact CAB but I keep getting no one is available to take your call, and I don't know where else to go to get advise.

    Can anyone help?
    I'm only here cos I got on the wrong bus.

    Hi

    Having just spent most of the morning trying to talk with them (long story which I'm sure will be on here soon!), try your local branch numbers if youv'e been trying the national one?

    Hope it helps

      You've possibly already scoured the net but I came across this if it's any help. When endorsements and penalty points can be removed from a driving licence : Directgov - Motoring

        You can email the CAB and they DO get back to you but it will be with a few days, not immediately unfortunately.

        Worth a try in the meantime of sourcing help elsewhere I suppose.

        I think you maybe able to appeal but it seems to be a lengthy and usually, equally unfair process.

        Good luck hun xx

              Try the website Citizens Advice  - the charity for your community I don't know your precise location, but you can type in your postcode in the search box.

                Or, you could tell us what your offence is, we'll tell you what a plonker you are, but somewhere along the line you might get some useful advice

                      Well I've decided to chalk it up and move on.

                      Yesterday I called in to pick up a sandwich at a local bakery and stopped in a back alley immediately after a zebra crossing, it was still in the zig zag lines. The police stopped and came over, they highlighted that my front drivers wheel was partially over the white hazard lines and therefore in contravention of the law. They issued me with a £60 fine and 3 points.

                      The things that bothered me most was one of them was having a bad day and I was getting the brunt of it, he was even shouting at me at one point. I hadn't parked there to cause a problem and pedestrians could negotiate me with wheelchairs or pushchairs no problem at all, and visibility was still clear because the rest of my car was back off the road.

                      I did feel that it was a technicality, and I got the brunt of someone bad day.

                      Throughout the rest of the day, I saw at least 6 other cars pulled over by a variety of police cars for a number of offenses, so I think it was a money collecting purge, in the area.
