teh plot thickenz

Not really. I was in the driver's seat before they got there. When we saw them coming down the road I got out of the car.

...and they saw you getting out of the car??????????????

[jezza boii]

Doubt it. Either way, I wasn't driving.

Then you can fight it then.

Sitting in the seat doesnt mean a lot

Back in the day, you can drive a manual car with an Auto license as long as you're a full.................but that got change also a while ago (god i'm an old kunt) so basically if you've got your Auto license after the year 19something then you can't drive a manual vehicle.

Course it does. It's intention to drive the vehicle. Same thing when you are tanked up on alcohol. If you are sitting in the drivers seat you can get done for drink driving

[R31Nismoid]

Only if the keys are in the ignition - proving intent

Sleeping in your car drunk with the keys in the glovebox or something does not show intent.

It's still arguable in a court of law is the point.

Intersting... I had no idea they changed the rules. Lucky I got my manual licence when I was learning

That's true but the police would have used their own judgment. A guy that is alone with a girl, who is too youg to even have her licence. I don't think they had a doubt in their mind who drove the car there.

who is too young to even have her licence

on topic.. i would fight it, as implausible as it sounds you may have just been waiting near/in the car for a friend

no use giving in when they don't have the smoking gun so to speak

Look - you know more about the situation, and with every post a bit more info comes out.

How is anyone going to give solid advice if it's taken nearly 2 pages to get the facts?

Not true. The automatic condition is not there when you get a full license.

[33gtst]

yeah im old too. I remember when you got an auto lic you could only drive an auto vehicle. Not sure where it stands now, but I think if you have an auto lic unless you pass a manual lic test you shouldnt be able to drive a manual.

Its a very different way of driving and some extra skill is really required.

[llama_au]

Oh certainly, I agree. But that doesn't stop me jumping into my soon to be manual car even though I got my P's 7 years ago in an auto and my full license with no conditions 4 years ago.
