If you 'shop a suspected drink driver - does anything happen

[Hol]

I had wondered how the first generation of kids who all got a medal just for turning up to a school sports day would turn out.

Now I know.

However, people grassing up their neighbours is close to a vigilante society. It is not healthy, and it has been encouraged by successive governments as part of a 'divide and rule' culture. Even down to the last government specifically running adverts aimed at encouraging people to report benefit cheats.

Again, I'm not encouraging these crimes but setting us plebs against one another is not the way to a healthy society.

I wouldn't report someone just for doing what the government thinks they shouldn't. We have too many petty rules & regulations & too many power-mad little aholes interfering in others' lives for no good reason.

OTOH I'm quite happy to report them for doing what *I* think they shouldn't. Drink driving easily falls into this category, as does benefit fraud.

In all honesty by the time the police were to react (probably the next day) the guy driving the Merc would totally be clear of alcohol so YES I suspect you wasted your time by calling them!!!!

Explain.

As you 'asked' so politely.....!

No I won't, as it was not directed at you anyway.
