       S.172 from a speeding fine that I never received (Uk, England)

       So about a year ago i got caught speeding doing 42 in a 30, they
       sent the letters for this to an old address. My V5C address was
       out of date but the court sent letters to 3 other addresses, non
       of which matched the address on the V5C anyway. I first heard
       about this when a bailiff contacted me a few weeks ago, since
       then I have submitted a statutory declaration which has been
       accepted but now I have a court hearing via video coming up and
       I'm unsure what to expect. Sources I've read online indicate i
       should plead not guilty to both the speeding and the S.172 to
       prompt the prosecutor to withdraw the S.172 charge (as i
       genuinely did not receive the speeding notice)
       Has anyone else gone through this, what should I do? Unsure on
       how to speak to the prosecutor about a plea deal when it's a
       video link hearing?

       Did you read the “READ THIS FIRST” sticky?

       I have read it, there is information about s.172 there but it
       doesn't answer my question
