His word vs the court/government's word I dare say he will lose like immacl8 said you need to get things in writing. Either way I also agree with immacl8, its his own fault and he shouldnt be on the road being caught for speeding and DD after already loosing his license. We need to spend more money on educating people, it might sound a bit sick but perhaps these DD people should visit the scene of an accident where a DD was involved and view first hand what's be done. I'm sure I wouldnt like to see that. I was one of the first people onto the scene of an accident last year a drunk had crossed the road infront of a guy on a motorbike and although there didnt appear to be any external injuries the guy looked pretty ****ed up, not something I want to see again. (the guy on the bike was ok, good thing he had a helmet on)
