Thank you for your question. To Introduce myself I am a sydney based Solicitor and will do my best to provide you with information to answer your question.

I'm sorry to say but the error on the ticket does not Makes the ticket invalid or allows you to get off.

if this is a 1st offence and you have a good driving record my suggestion to you would be not to pay the fine but initially write to the infringement bureau and request that they withdraw the infringement on the basis of your driving record and that this was a mistake and that you are remorseful for your actions.

In your letter you should explain the reason for the excess speed, for example if you were overtaking vehicle then this would be logical.

If this fails your next alternative is to relate for the ticket should be dealt with by the court. The courts have the power to show leniency and they can find you guilty of the offence but dismissed the following and not record a conviction on your traffic record.

If you have other speeding fines on your traffic record then the chances of leniency by the court for the fine being waived Are very slim.

In those circumstances you would be best to pay the fine and have the demerits listed on your license.

I hope I have assisted you with your question but if you need further information please do not hesitate to ask.

Having answered your question I would like to explain how I am paid for my work. The rating given by you, for my answer will decide whether or not I will be paid for my work.

At the end of this post you will see 5 faces asking you to rate my work. Selecting either of the 2 the unhappy faces means you are not happy with my answer and do not wish me to be paid for my work. The other 3 mean I am paid.

I would prefer you rate me at the very end of our session not after each response. This way I can be sure you have an answer that assists you and you can rate the whole experience.

I am here to assist you as quickly as possible, and you rating each post will delay the process as it does not tell me what the issue is. I would prefer you ask me questions than rating the response and not providing me with further questions.
