“Kaufman & Co. helped both myself and my clients when it seemed that our licences were at risk. It was their assured presence at court that gave me confidence when I had to appear before the Magistrates since which time I have referred my own clients to them”.

	This offence speaks for itself. If you drive faster than a limit imposed by the local authority then you are guilty of an offence. However there are a number of defences available to you one of which calls into question the calibration of the device used to prove that you were over the limit. Further there may be some question as to whether the limit was properly “signed”. Moreover it is arguable that a failure to comply with a speeding restriction because of poor visibility or that it was in some way obscured and that the driver was not otherwise at fault may provide a defence. The same may be true for failure to comply with other types of sign too. Where you exceed a speed limit you may have a defence of necessity as when you are under threat of attack, or a natural disaster occurs, or someone is ill or injured. In such a case you must have no feasible alternative in the circumstances
