Carry on Driving: free legal motoring help
Free legal motoring advice from Stephensons Solicitors

What are the chances of getting caught for a motoring offence?
Increasingly likely, judging by the latest Ministry of Justice figures. Take a look.
Careless driving offences - up 101%; vehicle test and condition offences - up 31%; use of handheld mobile while driving offences - up 30%; licence, insurance and record keeping offences - up 10%.
And the burgeoning use of speed cameras meant over 1.7m penalty charge notices were issued for speeding, while the police prosecuted in excess of 100,000 for speeding.
“With the constant changes to the Road Traffic Act and transport laws, the threat of motoring prosecutions is a particular hazard for business drivers on the move,” commented Sean Joyce, partner, Stephensons Solicitors.
For instance, there's the new offence of causing death by careless driving – while using a mobile for example. This has just been introduced and carries a prison term of five years.
Any conviction can have a pontentially serious impact on the livelihood of a driver - and serious financial consequences for the small business employer.
