Good Afternoon,
I am seeking clarification of the best course of action in filling the naturalisation application. 20 years ago, when I first came to this beautiful country, I was caught driving a car with no insurance. I wasn’t the owner/registered keeper of the vehicle (this comes in later) and I was given FPN (£200) plus 6 points on my license. My EU driving license was held by the police and the car was seized. A few days later a letter arrived to my address with my license and information (from memory along the lines of) as you weren’t the owner/registered keeper of the car please disregard the previously issued FPN (and if paid I will get it refunded) and the matter must be dealt by the court. I have never heard anything further about this case. A few months later I’ve exchanged my foreign (EU) license to a UK one. I have never had those six points put on my license (back in the day there were counterpart paper licenses with endorsements on them). I have just received ACRO from PNC and this incident doesn’t feature on there. My question is: do I declare this incident with explanation (and if so where - in the convictions and penalties section or in a cover letter or both?). I am also thinking about filling SAR to the local police force where I was stopped those 20years ago however I am not sure if that’s necessary and I should just declare it/not declare it regardless. Any advice most welcome! Thank you kindly.
