Can New Drivers Lose Their Licence After a Dangerous Driving Conviction in Scotland?

How Will a Dangerous Driving Conviction Affect Your Car Insurance?

Can Dashcam Footage Help Your Dangerous Driving Defence?
A single piece of dashcam footage can change the direction of a dangerous driving case.

In Scotland, video recordings are increasingly being relied upon by Police Scotland, witnesses, insurers, and courts when investigating serious road traffic…
What is professional negligence and how do I claim in Scotland?
A property deal that went south. An accountant’s error led to an unexpected tax audit. A lawyer missing a deadline in court.

This article considers how a professional negligence claim works in Scotland, who may have a…
Can I Recover Legal Expenses in a Scottish Civil Case?
Facing a dispute can be expensive long before a case reaches a civil court.

How Do I Enforce a Court Decree in Scotland?
A court decree can seem like the finish line after months of chasing money that’s owed to you. But in practice, a decree is often just part of the process. Many creditors find they need to take further action through the Scottish courts and formal enforcement procedures to recover the money owed. This article explains…
What Happens if You Refuse to Answer Police Questions About Dangerous Driving?
It can be a little terrifying to be asked to attend a police interview following an alleged incident of dangerous driving.

When Does Speeding Become Dangerous Driving in Scotland?
A driver may expect an allegation of speeding. Then a citation arrives accusing them of something far more serious.

This article explains when excessive…
What Evidence Do Police Use in Dangerous Driving Investigations?

Can Using a Mobile Phone Lead to a Dangerous Driving Conviction?
A mobile phone offence is often associated with penalty points and fines.

Can You Be Convicted of Dangerous Driving Without Causing an Accident?
