Get Off Driving Ban Scotland

Wednesday, July 1st, 2009

Facing a driving ban? Drink driving, speeding or careless driving etc? Specialist help lead to these ’certain’ charges being overturned. Ask a lawyer NOW!

Whilst most of our clients seek anonymity… for obvious reasons… sometimes the press get hold of a story. And thats why we can give you the following examples of just a few of our successful cases…

First example:

A man accused of driving at 122mph on a notorious stretch of road has had the case against him dropped over a legal technicality

Mr Clason’s lawyer, Graham Walker, a road traffic law specialist, objected and claimed the officer’s testimony on the gun’s calibration was “only hearsay evidence”.

Speaking outside the court, Mr Clason admitted: “I’m very relieved and I’m surprised at what happened.

“I didn’t really appreciate how fast I was going that night.

“But the people who enforce the law and prosecute must themselves abide by those very same laws.”

Next example:

The musician, real name Myles McInnes, appeared at Glasgow District Court earlier this week (ends23Dec07) over an incident in March (07), in which he was stopped by police in the city for being over the legal alcohol limit.

Graham Walker a specialist solicitor from roadtrafficlaw.com. said, “I had intended to call for the case to be deserted. However I was not aware that the two police witnesses would not turn up, which then became another argument for the charges to be dropped. It would not have been fair on my client to have the case adjourned.”

Next example:

ANOTHER Scottish solicitor and road-traffic expert has claimed that a speed detection device which has caught thousands of Scotland’s motorists might not be legal.

Road Traffic Law’s Graham Walker is calling for police to stop using the Pro Laser III handheld speed meter as it is not covered by the law for use in Scotland.

Drivers who have lost jobs, mortgages, and even relationships after convictions that caused them to lose their licence might have an appeal point and should seek legal advice as soon as possible said Mr Walker.

Next example:

A SCOTLAND international footballer was today cleared of speeding at 90mph in a 50mph zone after a prosecution attempt to postpone the case was thrown out.

Alan Hutton, who plays for Tottenham Hotspur, was accused of speeding in his Bentley on the M77 in Glasgow.

Graham Walker said following the abandoned trial: “Mr Hutton is delighted that he is able to put this matter behind him and that he has been able to secure his licence.

“As he currently has nine points, he would have faced a six month ban.

He added: “He can now return to footballing.

“He can drive his Bentley in peace.”

Next example:

DUNDEE United striker Warren Feeney was cleared of doing 81mph in a 40mph zone on a legal technicality yesterday.

Bungling prosecutors failed to give Feeney’s lawyers a document to show that the speed gun used to clock him was working properly.

Fiscal depute Ross Cargill asked the court to adjourn the case so he could send the paperwork to Feeney’s defence team.

But Feeney’s lawyer Graham Walker said: “This is a trial and not Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. It is not appropriate for the fiscal depute to just call a halt to proceedings so he can phone a friend.”It would be wholly inappropriate and unjust to move the trial to another day.”Justice of the Peace George deGernier agreed and dismissed the case.

As stated earlier these are our public examples that often involve celebrities, footballers and the like
