The straight answer is ‘no’
Some years ago, I was called on to convey a family member who had gone unexpectedly into labour with her firstborn. I was recorded by a police camera patrol driving the Rover I had at the time at over 80 mph up the Wrexham bypass. The magistrates didn't require me to produce the baby - just the birth certificate.
