Freedom of Information (FOI) Act request ref: 01/FIN/24/2260

Version Date: 01/11/2024

The Central Ticket Office have provided the following information.

For Officer issued tickets (TOR) 

Dorset Police issue paper Traffic Offence Reports (TOR’s) or submit Digital Traffic Offence Reports (PRONTO) which result in ‘Education’, ‘Conditional Offer of Fixed Penalty’ or ‘Court’. 

For Speed Camera Offences 

Dorset Police issue Notices of Intended Prosecution (NIP’s) which result in ‘Education’, ‘Conditional Offer of Fixed Penalty’ or ‘Court’. 

The data therefore identifies the number of NIPs / TORs processed at the Central Ticket Office where the outcome is one of ‘Education’, ‘Conditional Offer of Fixed Penalty’ or ‘Court’. 

The figures do not include cancelled offences. 

Dorset Police do not keep data on fines and prosecutions and those should be addressed to His Majesty’s Courts and Tribunals Service (HMCTS).
