Our client, a regular driver was caught in a whirlwind of driving offenses: no insurance, lacking an MOT, and travelling at 58mph in a 30mph zone. With six penalty points already under his belt, the threat of losing his driving privileges was palpable.
Sonia Bhalla from the Ringrose Law Criminal Defence Team with her renowned expertise, laid out a plea for understanding and a second chance. Despite the daunting speed infraction, Sonia masterfully laid out the full story behind the numbers and introduced the Exceptional Hardship argument, highlighting the dire repercussions a ban would inflict on the driver’s life.
The verdict? Instead of the anticipated ban, the court issued a fine and added points, sparing the driver the harsher penalty. Thanks to Sonia’s dedication, another individual got a chance to make things right.
