An allegation of careless driving — sometimes referred to as driving without due care and attention — arises when your driving falls below the standard expected of a competent and careful driver, or when you fail to show reasonable consideration for other road users and pedestrians.
Examples can include pulling out of a junction unsafely, clipping another vehicle in a car park, being distracted by a mobile device or navigation system, eating or drinking while driving, or remaining in the middle lane unnecessarily.
Since 2013, the police have had powers to issue fixed penalties for certain careless driving offences. However, you are not required to accept a fixed penalty if you believe the allegation is unfair — you have the right to challenge it in court.
At Scarsdale Solicitors, we take a detailed, evidence-based approach to defending careless driving allegations. This often includes gathering witness statements, reviewing accident reports, and working with expert witnesses to ensure your side of the story is clearly presented.
At Scarsdale Solicitors, we have extensive experience in defending motorists accused of careless driving and driving without due care and attention. Our team will carefully review the evidence, including police statements, dashcam footage, and witness accounts, to determine the best strategy for your defence. In some cases, we may instruct accident reconstruction experts to provide independent reports supporting your version of events. Our goal is to ensure that every detail is examined and that your defence is presented clearly and effectively before the court.
