Notice of Intended Prosecution

Challenge a speeding NIP

Speeding is a criminal matter. We focus only on procedural challenges — not whether you were speeding.

Procedural grounds that can succeed

Important

If a police officer stopped you, no NIP is needed. If you got an NIP and were not the driver, you must name who was — failing to do so is a separate offence (£1,000 fine + 6 points).

If you're facing court, especially with totting-up risk, consult a motoring solicitor. Tykkets generates procedural challenge letters only — not court defences.

Frequently asked

What does 'no NIP, no conviction' mean?

If the police can't prove they sent you a Notice of Intended Prosecution within 14 days, the case generally fails. The burden is on them, not you.

Can I appeal after I've paid?

No. Paying the Fixed Penalty is treated as admitting the offence. Don't pay if you intend to challenge.

Is a speed awareness course worth it?

If you're offered one and accept, the offence doesn't go on your licence. For most drivers it's the better option than challenging.
