I think everyone is overreacting to an extent. He allegedly did something wrong, the due process was followed, and it coincided with his death. Nobody likes speeding or parking fines, or bailiffs, but it's as likely that it was just his time to go as it was the events immediately before.
* I don't drive customers to locations for shooting as I'm not insured for it. The only time I've ever done it was last week, and it allowed a shoot to go on for an extra ½ hour, but once we were out of the shop we were friends not supplier/customer and so I was OK to drive her then- it wasn't for work.

I doubt if he'd have popped his clogs if he had been sitting at home in his easy chair with his feet up having a nice quite brew. Okay, we all know that everybody has to go sometime, but I think this poor chap had to much help from this outside force and it should not be allowed to happen again, to anybody, they are playing god with peoples lives and its criminal to say the least
