I was caught speeding, got the fine in the post, paid it and got the points. If 2/3s ish of those caught are happy to lie in Court than that's their own business I suppose, if Courts are seeing this amount of folk claiming that they never received the notice than I can see this judges point.

perhaps if the courts and judiciary were not seen as corrupt overpaid elites then people might be less likely to lie
