Kanna Traffic offence when bike is under the care of bike shop

[stkoh78]

Does anyone have this practice of allowing the bike shop to take care of the bike inspection? My father received a traffic police offense of $130 fine with 4 point demerits. He told me that he pass the bike to bike shop a day before the committed offence date, so he suspect that he was not the rider at that time of offence.

 

I'm thinking of writing a letter to TP to appeal this case but worried that it might complicate the matter , as i know that insurance only cover the rider.

 

Any advise ?

approach the bike shop 1st to discuss the matter. If u don't mind living with the points, they might opt to pay the fine. This is the option I would take to settle things amicably.

to clarify, bro, the mechanic should have an insurance coverage that covers him riding any bike. his insurance not the same as the one we normal people have, thats why the mechanics can ride any of the bikes in the shop out for testing and such and its legal.

Thank for your responses .

 

I have went to the bike shop today to discuss this matter. The shop owner who was riding that bike at that timing will take over this traffic offence.
