Facing a Drink Driving Allegation?
drink driving cases make up a large share of the work at this court. While the penalties are strict, the evidence is often technical, and a close look at the breath, blood or urine procedure – or at any failing to provide a specimen point – can reveal a defence. In limited circumstances a special reasons argument can also reduce or remove the disqualification.
Points, Speeding and Totting-Up Cases
From fixed penalties to court summonses, speeding cases vary widely. If a conviction would take you to 12 points, a totting up ban follows unless an exceptional hardship argument succeeds, so it pays to prepare that argument thoroughly and early.
Drug Driving, Careless and Dangerous Driving
Cheltenham Magistrates' Court also deals with drug driving, careless driving and dangerous driving. These offences can carry serious penalties, particularly where aggravating factors are present, and our road traffic experts can assess your case and advise on the best course of action.
