Motoring Solicitor’s advice on Toyota recalls

Posted on: February 9th, 2010 by motoringlawyers

This week has seen news that Toyota will be making further recalls to their cars.

Last week there were concerns about the accelarator, now it is concern over brakes.

Where does this leave the Toyota driver in relation to the law? toyota-prius and the law

It is hard to imagine that there are many Toyota drivers that are not aware of the potential fault given all of the publicity. This has effectively put them on notice that there may be a safety issue with the car.

If a Toyota driver was involved in an accident, having been made aware of the potential safety issues, then they may face criminal charges because they drove a car knowing that there may be a fault.

Dangerous driving can be committed in relation to either the manner of driving or the condition of the car.

If you are convicted of dangerous driving then the court must disqualify you from driving.

The best advice to Toyota drivers is to ensure that their car is not affected, if it is then arrangements must be made immediately for it to be collected and repaired.

Driving wrong way on motorway exit road

Posted on: January 11th, 2010 by motoringlawyers

‘I have been charged with driving the worng way up a motorway slip road’

You would think that with all of this snow it would be quiet on the motoring law front but it seems not.

car in snow I am getting lots of calls from people who have received a notice of intended prosecution for careless, even dangerous driving for driving the wrong way up a motorway exit. It seems that with a lot of motorways blocked people were turning around and getting off the motorway. Some times they were ordered to by Police officers, sometimes it seemed the only thing to do.

What can you do if you are caught up in this? My guess is that a camera triggers a lot of these Notice of Intended Prosecutions, I would suggest writing to the police and advising them of the circumstances, if they insist on prosecuting then it is unlikely that you will have a defence as such BUT – there is a way to avoid points.

If you receive a summons contact us immediately and we will advise how to argue that there are special reasons not to put any points on your licence. We will be able to offer expert representation in court to try and ensure that you do not get any points on your licence.
