Received this email today:
Just thought I would share this with you, as you know I work in the
speeding fine department in Swindon 's Magistrate's Court and in the course
of my investigation into 'fines, their payment methods, and how points are
automatically added against drivers licences' we discovered something very
interesting 'If You Get a Speeding Fine.'
This has been tried and it works I tried to send this to everyone I know.
I know that for a fact is works so if you ever get in this situation, you
have an out. We discovered that this procedure works nationwide. Read it
and try it, you have nothing to lose but the points on your license.
This is how it works:
If you get a speeding ticket or went through a red light or whatever the
case may be, and you are going to get points on your licence, then there
is a method to ensure that you DO NOT get any points. When you get your
fine, send in the cheque to pay for it and if the fine is say, £40, then
make the cheque out for £41 or some small amount over the
fine. The system will then have to send you back a cheque for the
difference, but here is the trick!
**DO NOT CASH THE REFUND CHEQUE!!!** Throw it away!!
Points are not assessed to your licence until all financial transactions
are complete. If you do not cash the cheque, then the transactions are NOT
complete. However, the system has gotten its money and is happy and will
not bother you any more.
This information came to our attention from a very reliable computer
company that sets up the standard database used by each county's computing
system.
Good luck and share this with all your friends and other family members
as well!!!
