Road traffic allegations can appear deceptively simple on the surface, yet—as with many areas of dispute—the detail is often what determines the outcome. Misconceptions about speed detection accuracy, the reliability of roadside procedures, or the consequences of failing to provide information or evidence frequently lead to confusion.
What may seem like a straightforward offence can, in fact, involve technical evidential issues or procedural irregularities. Our lawyers are experienced in handling the full spectrum of road traffic matters, including speeding, driving without due care, drink and drug driving, failure to stop, licence or insurance issues.
We routinely analyse the integrity of the stop, the lawfulness of any search, the accuracy and calibration of testing equipment, and the consistency of police accounts or witness statements. Where appropriate, we pursue negotiation, representations to enforcement authorities, or alternative disposals to achieve proportionate and constructive outcomes.
Our aim is to resolve matters efficiently and to mitigate the significant personal and professional consequences that road traffic offences can carry. In cases where court proceedings become unavoidable, our lawyers collaborate with leading criminal counsel to present a well-prepared, robust defence. We guide clients through what is often a stressful and critical process with clarity, discretion and a focus on securing the best possible resolution—because, in our experience, there is always a way forward; our task is to identify it.
