Coventry teenager who ignored M6 speeding fines ‘strongly condemned’

A Coventry teenager caught speeding three times has been slapped with a huge fine for ignoring police tickets and disqualified from driving. Warwickshire Police say Brijal Mardania was caught breaking the speed limit twice on the M6 ​​at junction 3A and once on the A46 last year.

She ignored speeding tickets, known as Intentional Prosecution Notices, and was charged with failing to provide driver details. The 19-year-old was later found guilty in her absence at Leamington Magistrates’ Court on March 5 and the case was adjourned for sentencing.

At the same court on June 18, she was disqualified from driving for two years and fined £1,980. She was also ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £792 and costs of £110.00.

Speaking after the court case, a senior case worker Alex Barrett-Evans said Ms Mardania had shown “a complete lack of respect” for the legal system. “While most law-abiding people interact with our correspondence to reach an appropriate speeding outcome, not all drivers comply,” she said.
