How we can help

If you’ve been charged with driving without due care and attention (careless driving), our team of motoring law experts can help you get you the best possible outcome from your case.

Careless driving is part of the Road Traffic Act 1988. It is defined as “allowing the standard of driving to fall below that of a competent and careful driver”. The endorsement code issued against your licence is CD10, which will stay on your driving record for four years.

The penalties are as follows:
A fine of up to £5,000
3-9 penalty points or disqualification from driving

During an initial consultation, we will identify the most suitable form of action. Although all cases are different, we will be able to give an estimate of the punishment you are likely to receive.

We will carefully examine the case against you and use our knowledge and experience to identify any weaknesses to exploit.

Our team will also look at your situation, and we may try to show that you would suffer exceptional hardship from a ban or hefty fine.
