12 months for 35 in a 30 ?! Wtf Police State!

[anonymous-user]

Thank goodness they spent two years of police time and resources to take this danger to society off the streets ! Good work. Why focus on stabbings, acid attacks or burglary eh ?

Dog whistle got you back from walkies early?

Presumably you're going to demonstrate your inability to understand what happened as thoroughly as you did on the other thread? He didn't get 12 months for 35 in a 30.

Good result by the police. Well done.

Really OP ..... 12 Months doesn't even begin to recover the resource used to identify & prosecute him, In my world I'd make him sell his house and possessions to pay the actual police resource used to identify & prosecute him,

[ShampooEfficient]

He thought it was serious enough to prat about, instead of taking it on the chin...

Man thinks he's too clever to be caught out by Police.

Wrong.

Just deserts.

The same police could have taken him to court straight away for 35mph in a 30 limit. They didn’t though, they probably offered a course or a fixed penalty. The chap refused one or both by attempting to get away with the speeding offence.
So instead of learning to drive or taking his fine and points like a reasonable but annoyed person he thought he would lie and cheat the system.
The penalty is supposed to wind you up, it would me and I’ve issued 100s of thousands of them.
He’s perverted justice, the alternative for him was to accept his punishment like a reasonable man FFS!

[e30m3Mark]

Funnily enough, this thread just reminded me to pay an outstanding notice. Frustrated (at myself) for getting caught speeding but how much of a tit do you need to be to think you can use a false name and address and the BiB won't bother to chase it up?

I really can't grasp how little intelligence you possess, your ability to comprehend the judicial process just doesn't exist, even when written in layman's terms.

"The penalty is supposed to wind you up"? Please elaborate, I thought the penalty was supposed to be a deterrent and a proportional punishment for the crime (I am not saying this penalty is not fit for the crime by the way, I thoroughly agree with it).
You have issued 100's of thousands of them, personally as a Police Officer pulling people over or do you operate a camera van?

I'm not sure who is the bigger idiot the OP or the man in the article.

If the penalty has no impact then why bother? I’d be annoyed to get one, that the annoyance would be directed at myself for being a tit doesn’t stop it being annoying

Not wanting to feel like that again must be part of the deterrent, the fine is affordable, three points is “so what” territory on a licence that’s not already stacked up with them.

If “winds you up” is in that context I’ve no issue with it.

And OP, this single issue hobby horse is a bit odd. You’re wrong, conspiracy to pervert is a serious crime and is always treated as one.

[mickeyredeyes]

Full props to the Officer in Case, that's no doubt one of those little 'hobby' cases you keep in your drawer and keep chipping away at. I can see him/her being very satisfied at that result.

Don't know what previous id he was using before he was banned but there is one amazing amount of bks spouted in his new 100 "first" posts.

[xstian]

The guy's and idiot and deserves the punishment. It's a shame they didn't give a similar punishment to this guy.

It's a hot topic. To give him his dune, he probably thought it was a sandstorm in a teacup, but the PCJ was the straw that broke the camels back...

It’s a close run thing but my money is on the OP, he’s a repeat offender.

Quite. But isn't it a bit worrying that the AA keeps recordings of calls made to them that the police can subsequently get their hands on. Big Brother is indeed watching us.

[Stoofa]

The story made me smile - hats off to the investigation team.
Chat to any "man down the pub" and he'll tell tales of just giving the details of somebody else when you get a speeding fine and you'll never get caught. Just goes to show that isn't the case.
£1600 - I expect if he'd been hit with the real bill for all their work it would have been double that.

Er... Actually, that's how it's spelled.
