Yet more crap from the nanny state

Once again the genuine enthusiasts get caught up in legislation designed to detter the citreon saxo with big tailpipe brigade! Sledghameer to crack a nut, if you want to stop the chavs who spend their time donughting in car parks just send a copper along to check their tax, mot and insurance details evry time, they'll soon get fed up. 5 or more cars!! WTF!

Attend a funeral and risk getting sent too jail ? 5 or more.........????

I used to live in Nottingham and the big bore Chavmobiles used to be a real PITA.
Blatting down residential roads with dustbin exhausts at about one in the morning- not very friendly...
Seems a sledgehammer to crack a nut. The problem wasn't the fact that there were loads of cars, or that they were going from one car park to another (MacDos being a favorite of course), it was the fact that they were doing it at warp speed (well for a crappy old Nova with loads of extra GF on it) anyway...
Why didn't they just nick em all for dangerous driving. Would seem far simpler....
Oh well, off to the garage

Wouldn't it be better to deter them with a visit from a vosa van to check ALL the cars at once, I'm sure 1 single complaint would get the visit required ??
Imagine them seeing all their cars being trailered away to get their exhausts fixed !!

It all comes down to the "lets put up a speed cam" and "get rid of a copper" state.
Lack of police and community contact is causing these problems.
Let's not talk to people, just ban it!!!!!!!
I have been invited to a hotrod/modified car meeting tomorrow at valley park in croydon (5pm weather permitting).
Does that mean that I am committing an offence?
What about cars going to weddings etc?
Lets just pick on the cars that stick out from the crowd!!!

quote:

It bans any event in which five or more vehicles congregate, race or drive in convoy in any part of the city.



Does that include circus's and gypos? What about fun fairs? Stupid Nanny state....


Jon Ison - 11/11/06 at 02:47 PM

As someone pointed out too me, "looks like the council have just banned council run car boots".........


Catpuss - 11/11/06 at 04:26 PM

I bet they'll have a bleeping field day in the summer when they have to arrest the local IAM motocyclists on a ride out. Watch em try and keep up

I wonder if they will be going over to Donington park, ticket book in hand for every event.


DIY Si - 11/11/06 at 05:10 PM

What happens if you include people chatting in car parks outside the cinema? Congregating surely?! It just takes the wee and could be extended to include any at park, or layby capable of holding more than 5 cars at once. Although it is only applicable in nottingham.


russbost - 11/11/06 at 05:56 PM

OOOOOOOHHHHHHH Dear! Did someone mention gypo's - can't ban them from anything mate - frightfully politically incorrect.
But Yeah ban all normal law abiding citizens from doing anything that Tone's Mob don't want to do themselves - why not ban cars altogether, if we go back to horse & carts the Gypo's will be happy, they've already got them


Peteff - 11/11/06 at 07:30 PM

They all have Nissan Navaras and enormous Hobby caravans round here, mostly nicked . The police raided an illegal camp and impounded 3 vehicles, 7 caravans and a stolen Husky dog (chip in neck)
More than 10 cars in convoy, that's the M1 on Friday afternoon then

Your Plod must be a lot braver than ours, or your Gypo's are pacifists! Down here the Plod won't go near a Gypo camp without an armed escort!!


Danozeman - 11/11/06 at 08:29 PM

The gypo's round here all have new navaras band mitsi l200's etc. Wev got a case at work trying to do them for nicking stuff from the yard. The police dont wanna know.... They just hook up and move on....

phelpsa - 11/11/06 at 10:29 PM

Yep gippos around here have Discos, Navaras, L200s, brand new transits and caravans bigger than your average terraced house! They took over my sister's school and set fire to several trees and the police did bugger all! This is a 3-13yr old girls school and they told the school to 'keep away from them'


khm - 11/11/06 at 10:33 PM
