Lanark Traffic Lawyer
Lanark is a speeding hotspot in Scotland. The M74 is the main arterial route between Scotland and the rest of Great Britain and lends itself to high speeds. We have successfully defended hundreds of drivers accused of speeding on the M74 at Lanark Justice of the Peace Court. We also regularly appear in Lanark Sheriff Court to defend motorists accused of a contravention of section 2 of the Road Traffic Act 1988 in and around Lanarkshire. Increasingly common in Lanark are exceptional hardship proofs where a driver argues against a ban under the totting-up provisions.
Lanark has limited parking available. If you get there early there is unmetered on-street
parking on Hope Street. If you miss the chance to park on Hope Street, you are probably best to park along the A73 West Port. There is a small tuck-shop style cash-only tea and coffee bar on the ground floor.
