He can afford to employ the best there is,so fair play, I’m sure if you or anybody else could afford the best legal representation that was available for a case they would.

Good luck to him if he can beat the system, he didn’t injure or kill any puppies, kittens …or nuns on their way to church.
If the law states a certain criteria has to be met then so be it. One of the problems is that businesses use companies other than Royal Mail to deliver for them and there appears to be no urgency to do so.
In the past letters like NIP’s were sent recorded delivery to prevent such disputes and this procedure was obviously done away with to save on costs.
If this matter goes to court and Beckham wins the case then it means that for the sake of a couple of pounds for a PoD justice has not been done. False economy in my opinion.
Where does it say he is to let off?
He is employing a solicitor and will mount a defence to the charge, same as anybody else in the country can, no guarantee the court will accept the defence and find him not guilty.

The case hasn’t gone to court yet.
I’m assuming that he’ll be subject to a percentage fine based on his wages if he is found guilty. He’s playing the odds between Mr Loophole’s high fee for possibly getting him off or facing a very large fine based on his wealth and ability to pay.
when they send the nip it is deemed to have been delivered within 2 working days whether you get it or not.
it only needs to be sent to the registered owner within the 14 days and the day of the offence dont count as the 1st day.
it makes no difference as to how long it takes to get passed down the line to the driver whether weeks or months,but the owner is deemed to have it within 2 days unless he can prove otherwise.
its the same for most gov departments.if they say they posted it,then you must have received it whereas if you say you posted it to them,then its meaningless.
i.e guilty until proved innocent in that respect.
if they didnt send the 1st out in time and it was presented back to them,then the summons would have been dropped before now,so no doubt itl be a case of blatent waffling nitpicking drawn out technicality dissecting pish and hope the judge gets so bored its an ok not guilty cos i want home for my tea result similar to oj simpsons effort.
The article reports that Beckham accepts he was speeding & is fighting on a technicality. With the ammount over the limit in force at the time I would think a ban & fine would be the likely punishment on conviction.
The chances of getting off - quite high.
The chances of a knighthood - getting less.
Victoria will not be happy.

How could anybody possibly tell if she were happy or not?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
half over the limit can lead to a ban.
59 in a 40 is less hence no ban unless he has 9 points already.
no matter what his penalty is then itl be like 10p to the rest of us.
I’m impressed he could get to nearly 60mph on the A40 in rush hour London 
im suprised its got that far. could be hes upset someone
Any lawyer worth his salt would know that the nip has to be served within 14 days not arrive within 14 days.
It does not have to arrive at all it only has to be posted out within 14 days of the offence.
As he is known as mr loophole and has a history of getting people off motoring offences I think he feels he has a good chance of beating this and might know a bit more that some clown on a lorry drivers forum

Come on you two!
Seems he admits the actual offence.
Does him having more money than you or I mean he should escape the penalties of points or a ban?
That ain’t “fair enough” is it?
One rule for them and one for us?
No nuns or kittens hurt?
Well, does that mean any form of potentially hazardous driving can be alllowed, if there is no crash?
Tailgating? No one died, so no offence.
Jumping a red light is ok if no collision?
90mph outside the school gates?

well theres no question as he has admitted the offence.
mr moneybags can afford a lawyer that gets paid enough to give a toss and concentrate on wriggling out of anything for any possible reason.
your nip is set in stone.
sent to the regd keeper within 14 days,the day of offence dont count.
they dont send them recorded,and its deemed to have been received 2 working days later unless you can prove it didnt which may be difficult as its non recorded and i dont imagine mr postman being of much help as a witness.
if they didnt send it out within the 14 days and were notified,then they would have dropped it before now and no court.
my pal got off with one from n.i a year ago for that reason.
as soon as the lawyer notified them as to their mistake,it was a no go from then on.
no doubt itl be interesting to see what slimy the solicitor can do when pepipoo cant.
Got off…
On a technicality.
Fair play to the boy in his borrowed Bentley.
Thing is he would prob got a fine n points maybe a ban not sure.
My point is how.much did Mr loop hole cost. To get him off.
Would been better for.him just to accept.what ever he’s given.
Would been better pr for him. And can always.get a Chaufer or get posh to drive him round
Good luck to the man, if i had his wallet i’d have instructed Mr Loophole too.
No point in being rich if you can’t enjoy the difference it makes.
Envious?, nope not a bit of it, envy is a disease in this country.
"She said: “What I find is the fact it did not arrive in the post room of Bentley Motors Ltd until 7 February and therefore was one day outside the legal limit.”
So it fell through the letterbox of Bentley Motors Ltd by the 6th, but took a day to get to their post room, 20 feet away. Well here’s the answer for Joe Public then, set up a post room at home at take 24 hours to get any suspicious letters from the doormat to it.
