MOTORISTS FIGHT TRAFFIC OFFENCES

ALMOST one in two motorists offer excuses to try to avoid being penalised for road traffic offences such as speeding, jumping lights or parking fines, according to a report by RAC Legal Services.

With 7.6 million parking fines issued and 1.7 million speeding offences last year, public resentment towards traffic wardens, speed cameras and parking restrictions is reaching boiling point.

However, with the Government proposing to deploy new civil enforcement officers to crack down on driving offences, the Motor Insurance company warned drivers they must brace themselves for more penalties in future and ensure they are more aware of both the traffic laws and their legal rights.

One third of drivers often plea ignorance to traffic restrictions, with a further quarter blaming other motorists for their driving offences. Interestingly almost half of drivers would not even contest a driving penalty to save face when penalised. 

Mark Hodges, spokesperson for the RAC said:- "The public is getting increasingly frustrated with wardens and fines. It is becoming more important for people to be aware of the traffic laws and to recognise the proper route for appeal if they have a legitimate excuse. Civil enforcement officers are now on the streets, the public must develop more awareness of the traffic laws and of their legal rights."
