oh dear i think im screwed speeding ticket and points!

Correct me if I'm wrong and read the op,s first post incorrectly,

You don't just get a £650 fine and 6 points out of the blue! I presume you have been convicted at court in person or in your absence?

I was also thinking that this is not a normal speeding fine.

Yeah, unless fines go up if not paid? I dunno?

I would have thought she would have had a knock at the door before now if it was just non-payment and i don't think they would slap extra points on for that either, 6 points and and a hefty fine points to something more serious than a speed trap.

6 points and that fine isnt a standard offense in any way shape or form 

[bob23]

That's more like a fine for no insurance rather than a speeding ticket!

They convicted you in your absence and you didn't even receive a court summons?...that doesn't sound right..

[shelaghmk3gti]

i knew of there intention.. as thats when i notified them of the name of the golf owner, but other than that the fine,DVLA request is all ive had.. oh and a letter of intention to recover ( 2 days later)

Whats the timeframe for all of this? was it in this order..1.swap vectra
                                                                                 2.get a fine/points from dvla for speeding offence
                                                                                 3 .inform dvla that you were not driving
                                                                                 4. get 6 points and large fine for not disclosing the name of the driver

There must be some form of court summons between 3 and 4 to give you the chance to defend yourself.

bet the bloke you name said Nope not me,

thus putting the liability back onto you, as YOU failed to notify the DVLA that you put the car into trade.

Harsh, but the way it is

There is something not right with all this! To get that level of fine and points you must have had a court summons and not turned up! Found guilty in your absence I think!
