Nothing to Say

My Magical Car
Apparently, while I was at work two Fridays ago, my car started itself and went for a drive!

How do I know this? Because the following Friday I got a notice of intention to prosecute due to a speed camera getting my car on the A68 on the morning of the 2nd of Feburary. This I find odd as:

I haven't driven on the A68 since June last year.

I was at work at 10:21 on the 2nd of February.

Hell, I even cycled to work that day!

Anyway, the lovely letter I've been sent doesn't actually tell you what to do to contest one of these things. I get three options: Admit it was me, tell them who it was, or tell them who I've sold my car to. So what's the procedure for actually saying "you've got it wrong!"?

The one bit I know is that I can make an appointment to see the relevant photo at their offices. I was vaguely under the impression I was supposed to be sent a copy, but apparently I'm wrong about that. So tomorrow I'll phone them up and try and work out what to do next.

Hopefully the method for contesting this will be fairly straightforward. If I'm lucky the camera caught an obviously different car with a similar number plate that it mis-read. If I'm unlucky the cars could be very similar or worse still, someone for some reason could have 'cloned' my car. Anyway I will try and keep my blog updated as to how this progresses.
