Error in DVLA licence summary Corrected – Driver not a Totter
Barrister, Millicent Dooher, represented this driver following initial concerns that he had been called to court for ‘totting’. Millicent was able to rectify the position in relation to the penalty points endorsed on the driving licence, reducing the number of endorsed penalty points from 9 to 6. Millicent then represented the driver at the Magistrates’ Court for a speeding offence, the recorded speed being 66mph in a 50mph zone. This usually carries 4-6 penalty points or a 7-28 day disqualification and a band B fine (100% of weekly income). Millicent was able to persuade the Court to deal with this matter in a way that would reflect a fixed penalty notice, ultimately, the driver received 3 penalty points and a £70 fine.
