Understanding Careless or Inconsiderate Driving

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.

How Scarsdale Solicitors Can Help

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.

Not Sure What to Do About Your Careless Driving Offence?

Most people who get in touch with our team of motor offence expert solicitors are uncertain of their options. They are unaware of any legal defences that may be available and find it difficult to believe that it might be possible to defend the drug driving offence charge they face by using loopholes that apply to the rich and famous! We do represent celebrities but we also represent many hardworking motorists like Brian and we want to help you make the right choice about what you do next.

We are always more than happy to chat things through with potential clients Free of Charge. Call us now on Freephone  0161 660 6050 to speak to one of our specialist motoring offence solicitors. It is only once you decide to instruct us that payment will become necessary and we can often arrange installment plans to assist you. Many satisfied clients have thanked us for offering this free consultation service as it has prevented them from following inaccurate non-expert advice which could have led to them accepting a driving ban unnecessarily.

If you would like to spend more time browsing on the site before you get in touch, make sure you have a look at our specialist motor offence guidance features such as our drink driving ban calculator which will help you to determine the penalty you may face if convicted and our money saving calculator which helps to outline some of the hidden costs of accepting a conviction.

We think we are simply the best in the business but if you are not satisfied in taking our word for it, our unique “ask our clients” testimonials scheme allows you to contact previous clients of the firm to seek a completely independent reference about us and what we might be able to do for you.
