Road Traffic / Driving Offences

Road traffic offences can have serious and far-reaching consequences. For many, the ability to drive is not just a convenience — it’s a necessity. Whether it's getting to work, caring for family, or maintaining your livelihood, the loss of a driving licence can be life-altering.

At Kelly Blake Legal, we understand the pressures and uncertainty that come with being investigated or charged with a motoring offence. That’s why we offer clear, strategic legal advice and representation from the earliest stage of proceedings.

Types of Road Traffic Offences We Handle

We assist clients facing a wide range of offences, including:

• Driving without insurance

• Speeding offences

• Driving without a licence or whilst disqualified

• Drink driving / drug driving

• Failure to provide a specimen

• Driving without due care and attention (careless driving)

• Dangerous driving

• Failure to stop or report an accident

• Using a mobile phone while driving

• Totting up penalty points leading to disqualification

Even minor infractions can escalate — whether through accumulation of penalty points, aggravating factors, or refusal of fixed penalty notices. Some offences carry mandatory disqualification or custodial sentences.

Our Approach

No two cases are the same. We take the time to understand the circumstances, assess the available evidence, and provide realistic, straightforward legal advice. Our services include:

• Representation at police interviews

• Preparing and presenting mitigation

• Challenging procedural or evidential failings

• Advocating for exceptional hardship to avoid disqualification

• Defence at both Magistrates' and Crown Court levels

We are skilled in identifying where legal arguments can be raised to protect your driving record — and where early resolution may be in your best interest.
