Quick question....

[illuminateTHE...]

I just received a letter from the police, regarding my accident.
They have given the option to either..

1) Allow them to summonsed/charge the offender before a court
2) Allow offender to improve their driving skills through a 'driver improvement course'.
3) Allow them to offer up a warning
4) Take no further action

Now I will be picking option 1, but this may require my attendance at a court. So I'm wondering how long do these things take?

Option 1 ensures no insurance BS at least.

Not really sure they should be asking you that, should be:

1) Fuck them up (as the law would)

2) Let them off

Bear in mind with option 1 they can get off scot free.

That said the other 3 options effectively do that as well.
Is option 3 a waning may be a police caution. If so is it a conditional caution? IIRC these if broken the person can then be charged with a (the) crime.

...go for option 1 and spin the coin.

option 1,

all the others are essentially 'let them get away with it'

and considering the lies you stated they were spouting 'he was speeding' etc then like hell I'd let them get away with it if it was me

Sounds like some customer satisfaction survey since theyve been letting serious offenders away with warnings. The english legal system is a joke with that many options. In Scotland since theres a victim, outstanding loss etc it would rule out police warning and DIS (unless requested at court). Leaving only two options enough evidence? Charged. Not enough evidence? Not charged.

It's victim based justice, and about bloody time too.

I agree with the court route, that's what they're there for. If he's got any sense at all he'll plead guilty and you might not be needed.
