what a shame.
Miserable b@stards!
My mate got caught speeding on his way down to my place on a stretch of road that had had the limit changed since he was last down. Pled guilty by
letter. Got notification that he had better appear on the new date, if he didn't they would consider a custodial sentence.
When I reported a local Councilor for breaking and entering and criminal damage, the local police said it was a civil matter.

i hear little stories like that everday-and people have nicknamed me victor(meldrew) for my grumblimg-is it any bloody wonder!!!!
He should change jobs...
If he'd have been in the Police Agency, he'd have got a way with it! 
Could he not have claimed "testing the capability of the works van?"
Oh no, like you say - he's not a Rozzer.
serves the buggar right for putting them up. What goes around comes around.
How poetic - couldn't he claim he was testing that it was working correctly?
Is that karma?
