Driving Otherwise Than in Accordance With a Licence

Driving otherwise in accordance with a licence or driving without a licence as it is commonly known is an unusual offence which has different consequences depending on how it is alleged to have been committed. Professional legal assistance is at hand from specialists in motoring law, mosshaselhurst solicitors.

We have wide success in motoring law defence and in cases of driving otherwise in accordance with a licence and will do our best to help you avoid or minimise penalty points and/or fines and/or disqualification.

Driving otherwise than in accordance with a licence first requires the police to prove you were driving a vehicle. If they show that then you are required to show you held a valid licence at the time of driving. If you cannot show that you did then you can receive 3 penalty points and or a disqualification as well as a fine of up to £1000. There are situations where people commit the offence without knowing.

Often the DVLA will revoke licences for a number of different reasons and if you have not received the notice telling you then you will be unaware. Depending on the reason for the revocation of the licence can make a significant difference to how the Court have to deal with you. This is a point which can often be missed by legally trained people so it is important you get sound legal advice before attending court.

If you are disqualified, no penalty points will be issued but this rarely happens.
