HI ,

First of all ,I would like to thank all the members for sharing their experiences!

I have a query regarding conditional offer fixed penalty notice which I received last year in May from Metropolitan police for not maintaining car brakes light (brake light bulb was fuse), which I accepted and paid on time.

I didn't get any points on my license , my query is :

Do I need to click yes on 3.1 "Have you been convicted of any criminal offence in the UK or any other country"?

If yes than

What should I put Sentence given and date sentenced (As I never got anything from court)?

I would highly appreciate your replies.

Many Thanks!!

FPN is not a criminal offence, surely.

Hi ,

Many thanks for directing me to the Q5 of FAQ but as it states "A FPN (often given for minor motoring offences such as speeding) is not a conviction" but as per the Guide AN Fixed penalty notices must be disclosed , in which section do I need to disclose the FPN .

The more am trying to dig down , more I am getting confused. Please advise...


Many Thanks
