Failure to Furnish Driver Details / Document Offences

Tuckers Solicitors specialist team is dedicated to providing legal advice to clients facing prosecution for any road traffic offence including clients charged with failure to furnish information relating to the drivers identity or document offences, such as tachograph and operating licences or where they have failed.

You are required by law to identify the driver of the vehicle, if it was not the registered keeper who was driving at the time of the alleged offence. If you are unable, or unwilling to do so then it follows that you will be summonsed for failing to furnish information.  A Notice of Intended Prosecution (NIP) will be issued to the registered keeper of a vehicle if the police failed to stop the vehicle at the time of the alleged offence. The NIP will be received within 14 days.

A defence for failing to furnish driver details is showing ‘reasonable diligence’. You must prove that you went to all reasonable efforts to determine who was driving the vehicle at the time of the offence but have been unable to do so.

Our specialist team has a great deal of experience in in failure to furnish information matters and we are committed to looking at all of the facts surrounding your case in order to provide you with the best possible result.
