       NIP - EXCEED A VARIABLE SPEED LIMIT - M1 NORTHBOUND JNC 8 - 9

       Hello Everyone,
       On the 04/02/25 I received a 'Notice of Intended Prosecution'
       for 'Exceed a variable speed limit - automatic camera device, M1
       motorway, between Jnc 8-9 Northbound, 60MPH Variable Speed
       Limit'.
       I was photographed travelling at 69MPH on the 03/01/25 at
       04:20hrs.
       The photograph shows the carriageway around me as empty - I was
       the only car on that section of road. There were no roadworks in
       that area nor were there active matrix signs for debris / broken
       down vehicles, etc, etc.. leading up to that area.
       I just wanted to see what you thought regarding anything I could
       do to challenge this NIP please? Particularly as there was no
       obvious reason for the speed limit being lowered to 60MPH.
       Your help is appreciated.
       Thank You

       Nothing that you have told us indicates a viable defence

       There's many reasons that an NIP could be challenged (eg not
       your car, cloned plates, alleged offence at a time when the car
       was parked outside the house and was empty).
       "I don't think the limit should have been 60mph" isn't one of
       them.
