How does PSNI decide whether to offer a speed awareness course in Northern Ireland?
PSNI/NIRSP offers a speed-awareness course only where the driver and offence meet its eligibility criteria.
Eligibility depends on factors including the detected speed and prior course history; if eligible, the NIRSP sends an offer with provider details.
With PSNI or NIRSP paperwork, use the reference number on the notice and meet the deadline printed on that document. Keep copies of what you send. A fixed penalty, NIP and request for driver information are different legal steps, so do not ignore one because you intend to dispute another. For "How does PSNI decide whether to offer a speed awareness course in Northern Ireland?", read the notice itself before acting because the response route depends on whether it is a NIP, driver-information request, course offer or fixed penalty.
