Optional Information: Province/Country relating to question : UK Already Tried: have filled in the form that was sent to me and returned it.
Hi thank you for your question I will assist you with this.
Failure to complete and return the form within 28 days is a separate, specific offence which could lead to a fine and penalty points being added to your driving licence. How long outside the time limit were you?
Generally, after a failure to respond to the Notice within 28 days it is automatically passed to the Court to issue a summons for the additional offence of failing to identify the driver, which carries a maximum fine of £1000 & 6 penalty points endorsed on your driving licence.
I would recommend you attend at your local police station as soon as possible and preferably during office hours so that the central ticket office can be contacted to see if it is still possible for you to pay the fine and not go to court. This would however be at the discretion of the central ticket office.
If you have any further questions, please ask.
