Failure To Surrender Licence - Even Though I Gave Him One?
Hi everyone, after 12 years of clean driving, I got my first ticket. I had stepped out to grab a bite and left my valid licence in my other pocket. I had an expired "valid photo ID" licence in my vehicle that I keep just in case I need photo ID. I gave the officer that one and I told him my valid one is at my house which is literally 400 meters away but he just took the expired one instead.
He came back and gave me a ticket for failure to surrender licence.
The ticket has my old house address on it. I do have a valid drivers license that is not expired with my new address, however that was left at home.
So I did give him a licence just not the valid one.
Is there any way to fight this?
Thank you in advance.
