there is a way I have heard mentioned, people say they have used it; but I don't know
when you get your fine send a cheque for a small amount too much, The magistates will return a cheque for the extra, If you do not cash this they cannot or don't put the points until the transaction is completed but you have paid your fine so the magistrates are happy

Another one is to find out when the machine was last calibrated, there is supposed to be a certain time limit which I think is pretty regular plus the form has to contain the signature of 2 certain ranking police officers
Or so I am told. There may be information on the net for this, I suppose it makes sense though that these machines cannot just go doing people without calibration

False numberplate - I was driving round with one for a year without realising and it never caused a problem. (Eventually found out when renewing tax and insurance that the supplying dealer had mixed up the digits on the original no. plate.) I decided to get it swapped but I sometimes wish I hadn't - it was the perfect excuse. Obviously if you get pulled over in person it could mean an extra set of points - but it avoids all the automated ones from cameras and plate readers.
