I can't remember a speeding case worth fighting. They are rarer
than hen's teeth.

I agree there are few arguable on the basis of "I wasn't
speeding". But there's shedloads of advice given on Pepipoo (and
hopefully increasingly on here) on how to deal with other
matters such as s172 charges (when no NIP/s172 received),
convictions in absence and others. The benefit that posters
receive is arguably every bit as important as there is very
often a good strategy to deal with those problems which posters
otherwise would not be aware of.

Nowadays, yes. It’s such a simple offence that challenging it
requires some quite unusual circumstances.

Also educating posters about the likes of
- the 14 day rule for first NIP
- whether they are really the RK of a vehicle
- futility and potential consequences of dodgy strategies to
avoid naming the driver
- even a modest van is subject to different (lower) speed limits
than a car
- timing out a prosecution if there have been delays in the
paperwork, and conversely not hanging about if a the option for
a course is about to expire
- etc.

Is that because of the "READ THIS FIRST - **BEFORE POSTING YOUR
CASE!**" Important Topic on this website under Speeding and
other criminal offences which appears to suggest to posters to
use "our NIP Wizard" and then gives a footnote referring to
PePiPoo? That seems to me to be inviting speeding posters to
post on Pepipoo rather than posting here.
But I'm uncertain as to whether the PePiPoo NIP wizard is fit
for purpose anyway. There's a thread on there at the moment
where the OP had an NIP dated 11 days after the offence but
received it 15 days after the offence. The Wizard
recommendations are (1) "that the NIP must arrive within 14 days
unless there is a valid reason why that was not possible", and
(2) also links to advice from the RAC's legal team which directs
to a thread over 20 years old which contains a suggested and out
of date response drafted by the RAC and such gems as returning
the NIP unsigned and that the best defence is to say you don't
know who was driving...
I appreciate that the answers themselves to the Wizard questions
can assist in providing relelvant advice, but that doesn't
really explain why the Wizard produces a "Recommendation" that
on the face of it is extrememly misleading if not downright
wrong. I've certainly read one thread where the OP said thay'd
sent off the RAC letter as recommended only to be asked why
they'd done that. Well because that's what the wizard
recommended.
I'm sure when it was written years ago the Wizard was rather
clever and helpful, but I'd suggest that at the very least it
needs updating. Perhaps it should be done on here.
(I think I previously pointed out problems with the wizard on
PePiPoo but got dismissively shot down and couldn't be bothered
taking it further. But this is a different website...)

Like almost everything on pepipoo, the problem with the Nip
wizard is that it's not been updated in 10+ years.
If you want to make a new one for use on here I'm all for it.

I hope you haven't included SP in that catch all ::)

I’ve checked your profile and I can’t see any reason why.

Pepipoo is down again from last night when I kept getting error
messages after getting a "flood control" message. No connection
with server again this morning.
