Driving Without Due Care And Attention Plead Guilty Or Not Guilty?
hi i am being charged with carless driving and was wanting a second opinion on what to do.
Basically what happened was i came round a right hand bend and lost control not going fast or anything, damp greesy roads, and hit corner to corner on each car, no injuries to anyone, no witnesses, so moved cars to the side and phoned police. so they turn up and do their thing and now im getting charged, on the statement i have by the policeman he says there was no obsicles or spiliages and the road was in good state of repair but he does say the road surface was wet and visability was good without high winds.
i have already been banned for 9 months for drink driving, i am 19 so i dont fall under the 2 years driving and can still only get 6 points, what should i do?

Can ask how the police were called? Unless someone is hurt they normaly say they don't want to know.
My car was once reversed into while I was sitting in my living room, it was observed by two police officers who were standing by my car when I came out of my house. They made sure that we exchanged details and drove off.

" i came round a right hand bend and lost control not going fast or anything, damp greesy roads, and hit corner to corner on each car"
you where either going to fast for the conditions, or not in control, so careless and maybe carless for a while
best plead guilty and learn from exprerience

When deciding whether to ban someone or not, courts are specifically instructed that the possible loss of the offender's job is NOT sufficient reason to avoid a ban. (That's to ensure that the law is equally fair to everyone. Otherwise, say, a retired person could be punished more severely than a van driver if the van driver didn't receive a ban when, for the same offence, the retired person did).
It's normally only special circumstances which affect someone else which can help to avoid a ban. For example, if someone has to drive their seriously ill child to Great Ormond Street Hospital on a regular basis (and no other reasonable arrangements can be made) they might avoid a ban because of the harm that such a ban would do to the child.
