Well I sold my old car on 12th August, to a motor trader, and promptly sent the yellow slip to the DVLA who signed for said slip (send special delivery along with tax for a refund) on the 13th August.
I've just received - 20 days later - a Notice of Intended Prosecution due to the chap who bought it off me having been speeding.
Now, like a complete and utter retard I didn't make a copy of the yellow slip before sending it in to the DVLA, so I don't know the details of the buyer any longer - all I have is his first name, Mobile number, and email address.
I have two questions:
1. Is it normal for the DVLA to take this long to not update their records with the new keeper details?
2. Is there any way of me contacting the DVLA to find out the details entered on to the yellow slip that I signed and the motor trader filled in so that I can provide this information to the police?
Thanks in advance
