Notices of Intended Prosecution If you’ve received a NIP advising you that you are being investigated for the commission of motoring offences such as careless driving or failing to stop after an accident you’ll be concerned as to how you should respond. You’re usually also required to identify the driver at the same time (failing to do so is itself a separate offence). The Notices often include a box inviting you to give your version of what happened with a note advising you that the police will take your version of accounts into consideration when deciding how to proceed. You should think carefully before taking up this option. If you don’t give an account it is possible that the police will think you have no defence to the allegation thereby encouraging them to prosecute. On the other hand, if you provide an account without fully understanding the relevant law and procedure you could be at risk of making your situation worse! If you’d like to discuss your case, without obligation, please don’t hesitate to call.
