red light camera v5 not in my name - Michael89

Hi I was wondering if anyone can help I brought a car off a dealer but the v5 isn't in my name yet, think I might have been caught by camera where will the ticket go to?

Will the dealer get the notice?

If the notice goes to the garage, then all they will do is sand a letter back to DVLA stating that they sold you the car on xxx date, and therefore you will need to be contacted to supply the details of the driver.

You're not going to get away with it, in other words.

I presume the car was not new - I think it is unusual for a dealer to put his name on a V5, if only to limit the number of keepers. Likely that DVLA still thinks the car belongs to the previous owner. Time will probably sort this out, and not in your favour.
