Drink Driving and Drug Driving — Scotland's limit of 50mg of alcohol per 100ml of blood is the lowest in the United Kingdom, and drivers heading to early shifts at the airport or the distribution parks are caught by it regularly. We examine Intoximeter calibration and maintenance records, the procedure followed at the police station, and whether the hip flask defence is available on the facts. Dangerous Driving — conviction brings disqualification for at least 12 months and a compulsory extended retest; motorway allegations often turn on lane discipline and closing speed, and on whether the driving was dangerous or merely careless. Careless Driving — a matter of degree worth arguing. Speeding — the M8 through West Lothian, the M9, the A89, the A899, the A8 and the A800 are all heavily enforced; we check device type approval and calibration and whether a Notice of Intended Prosecution was served within 14 days. Totting Up and Exceptional Hardship — at 12 penalty points the court must disqualify for at least 6 months unless exceptional hardship is proved on evidence. Driving Without Insurance — 6 to 8 penalty points or discretionary disqualification. Mobile Phone Offences — 6 penalty points. Driving While Disqualified — a charge carrying a real risk of custody.
