Caught speeding at 36 km/h in a built-up area, what should I do?

I was caught speeding 36 km/h in a built-up area. It was a mobile speed camera. The road was four lanes. The speed limit in the right lane, where I was traveling, was only 50 km/h. In the middle, there were two lanes each with a 60 km/h limit; these two lanes essentially ran through an underpass. The left lane also had a 50 km/h limit.

In short: I was caught speeding 36 km/h in a built-up area. I now face a one-month driving ban, two points on my license, and a fine of approximately €250. I rely on my driver's license for work and was caught speeding in a company car while at work. Based on this, it was stated that I was the driver at the time of the offense.

My question is, is it worth appealing this, especially since I don't have legal expenses insurance? I'm also considering taking out retroactive legal expenses insurance. Can I simply list my cousin as the driver, or is it better to appeal?

My question is whether it is worth appealing against it

Better.

I also consider the conclusion of a retroactive legal protection insurance.

I’d let it be, because in the end you’ll have to pay.
There is something like this, especially in the transport sector, but see above

Can I just give my cousin as a driver,

What for?
Your company has already indicated DICH as a driver. So nothing will change.

I depend on my driving licence

Not anymore.

At 36 too fast, you had over 90 at the tacho. Not bad, but how stupid can you be if you depend on your FS? An opposition won’t bring anything. The story with your cousin is sweet. Your AG has already announced that you have driven what you can prove. In addition, this will certainly also interest your AG that you do nothing during your working hours and instead let your cousin drive the car around the area.

there are no retroactive legal protection insurance. And now you can’t do anything unless you could prove that the measurement is wrong.

Stand up or drive slowly.

There is no retroactive legal protection insurance, they are not doof, and the opposition will NOT bring extra unnecessary costs.

It is better to stand for the mistake and to take the penalty. Everything else makes it worse.

You should take a lawyer and seek a favor. The fine is increased and a driving ban is dispensed with. However, you must not have points for this, etc.

Those who drive (after deduction) 86 instead of 50 have, in my opinion, considered more than just “not at the pace”.

If you know how valuable mobility by car is for one, then you might need to align your driving style accordingly.

A lie (“someone differently driven”) is generally bad, especially if it is so easy to see through. Your cousin at the wheel…?

Objection will probably not bring anything. The violation is clear, as is the evidence (photo).

Perhaps this is now the trigger to learn from it and to deal with the gas more rationally in the future…

What kind of opposition? You drove too fast and you’ve been at the wheel.

If you board the place with over 80, you must accept your punishment

Your employer has already indicated you as a driver and the photo will confirm that.

To indicate your cousin as a driver Crime and would be exposed through the photo (if you don’t see yourself very similar).

A lawyer won’t be able to do anything.

Of course you can intervene, but he won’t do anything.

Hi, you can object, but usually it doesn’t.

Telling your cousin as a driver would be a crime. I can’t guess.

The fact that there can be no “retroactive legal protection insurance” can be seen with a bit of reflection.

On the subject of deception about the driver: Even if you would not get any trouble with your employer (Do your cousin even drive the company car?): Your employer – and, if necessary, even all your colleagues – would surely be very enthusiastic if the legal requirement would be to have to record the use of the company cars by travel books in the future.

You could turn to a specialist attorney, and maybe he sees one way to challenge the correctness of the measurement.

Otherwise you have to go through it. 36 km/h too fast usually means a high level of safety risk, and that you are being pulled out of traffic with it makes sense in terms of traffic safety.

It’s cool. If I build an accident, I simply close a retroactive full-cass. And the people who pay monthly health insurance are pretty stupid – if I’m healthy, I don’t need one, and if I have what, I’ll just close them back.

Can I just give my cousin a driver

How do you imagine? It is already known to the Office that you have traveled and if someone compares the lightning photo with your saved ID photo, he sees that it is also true.

Why would the office believe you weren’t? Do you have proof that you were somewhere else at the time in question? Do you have any evidence that your company had tomato on your eyes and overlooked that your cousin had the car at the moment in question?

or is it better to appeal?

Do you have any indication that something went wrong in the procedure? Was the flasher wrong? Is the specialist in office related to your ex and has something personal against you?

If you don’t, you didn’t have any objections. But then the accusation is correct to you.

Now I’m threatening a driving ban of a month

I depend on my driving licence

Well:

A month of driving ban can be bridged with your holiday if necessary. Too bad about vacation days, but you won’t lose the job. Maybe you have to take overtime or there is a chance to do the work in the home office or by public transport. Talk to your boss.

Maybe you learn from the whole thing that it’s not really smart to risk a driving ban if you can’t afford a driving ban.

In a month, the circle can convert the lock I can convert a higher fine story.

Just pretend, maybe they’re the smart ones and help you.

Your cousin does your job? This will certainly be very interesting to your company.

Do Nix, except accept the penalty and consequences for your behavior! Ideally you learn from DEINEM mistakes! And write applications! If you are dependent on the driving licence for your profession, but soon you have no driving license, you need to look for another job! Ideally one where you can also get by bus! 🙂

You knew that you were reliant on your driving licence. Then you have to stick to the traffic rules.

Of course, you can also negotiate a fraud procedure. Then you’re sure you’re going to do your job.
