Hi,
I should be grateful to understand if I have any grounds to
contest the alleged offence (see attached).
Thank you in advance,

Are you sure you want all of your personal information all over
the internet?

OP, are you the Registered Keeper of the vehicle? I.e. do you
have the V5C (Logbook) in your possession, and are the details
correct?

I am not the registered keeper as it's a works van.

In that case, nothing you have told us suggests "any grounds to
contest the alleged offence". But then again, you have told us
next to nothing.

I'm not sure if there is much more to tell. I was the driver of
the mentioned vehicle, I was following the flow of traffic, I
did see the Police camera van, which was wedged in alongside a
number of parked vehicles so hidden from oncoming traffic. The
road in question is quite steep and I was approaching going
downhill with the camera van catching vehicles as they descend.
It looks like I'm "bang to rights" on this but just thought i'd
check with the experts here before submitting my details.
Thank you again

Even if you have a defence your reply to the NIP is not the
place to say you want to defend it. The NIP asks you only to
identify who was driving. Nothing else.
Failing to return the NIP and provide the information within the
deadline is a serious offence - more serious than the speeding
charge. As it says on the NIP, not identifying the driver can
result in £1,000 fine + 6 points on your licence. With luck
38mph in a 30 mph limit should get you an offer of doing a Speed
Awareness Course, so no conviction, no fine and no points. As
long as you haven't already done the course within the last 3
years.
