Ok, friend of mines car was snapped by a camera van back in May. He received the NIP but really doesnt know who was driving.

He sent off within the 28 day period for a photo of the alleged crime and has received it today.

Its completely impossible to distinguish who is driving the car...and I mean, completely....

What should he do now?

Not good enough i'm afraid!

He was selling the car and had about 5 test drives that day! Hows he supposed to know who was driving let alone how to get in touch with them!

Not necessarily. It'll be up to the court to decide...if he goes that route

(4) A person shall not be guilty of an offence by virtue of paragraph (a) of subsection (2) above if he shows that he did not know and could not with reasonable diligence have ascertained who the driver of the vehicle was.

Where is this from and more importantly what does subsection 2 say?

Thanks

Your doing a lot of work for your friend

Hes Mute and has no arms or legs so would have to type with his nose.

Hence the reason the car was on an unaccompanied test drive....
