Thank you for all the advise,some i may have read somebut after reading follow up posts i can see why some where coming from. but thanks to everyone.
Had call last night asking my son to come down the station,The chief inspector passed the complaint to the traffic inspector who sat down with my boy over a cuppa asking him if he thought he was speeding which the reply was "i don't think i was" anyway after a hour the inspector said he was willing to quash the ticket as the officer did not fill the location in correct and they could have trouble gaining a prosecution in court as speed limits could not be identified from the ticket.Just stating Littlehampton is a joke,His words.
He did say he thinks my son was just within the 50mph limit when stopped from the officers description of the road.He will receive a letter to confirm this.
The inspector confirmed any ticket given out must provide the exact location or details that identifies the place of a afence.He also said many people do not check the details on tickets and just pay up.
To be honest Bill, the only reason the Chief Inspector is offering to let go is becaquse he knows he's in the wrong (or rather, his boys are).
The guy is NOT doing your son any favours, and the fact the Chief Inspector has invited your lad for a cup of coffee and a chat means he's on a damage limitation exercise.
I'd personally be compiling the compensation invoice that means I don't have to work for the next year if I was in his shoes, but I'm suspecting (from what you have already said) that your lad isn't as ruthless as some of us.
