s.172 charge Abandoned by Prosecution at Court

Millicent Dooher represented this vehicle hire company who were charged with failing to provide driver information to the police following an offence. The Company were able to produce evidence they had responded, and the prosecution offered no evidence at Court.

Where a response is made to a s.172, it is always a good idea to keep a record of the postage. If a driver/company has responded, but the police do not receive the notice, the offence cannot be made out.
