About time too, the more they catch the better.

Many a good tune is played on an old fiddle.

Re: Beware! Beware! they are out to get you.
 

My mates mum got pulled over this morning on the way down the M65 for not having any insurance. She got zapped by one of those new devices that checks number plates. Only problem was she did have insurance and argued blind with the Police that they had it wrong but was asked to produce her documents to the Police Station.

By the time the Policeman let her go it was too late and she had missed an extremely important meeting at work where people had travelled some distance to get too and as a result of this has she thinks she has lost her opportunity for the contract she was hoping for.

I wonder if they offer compensation in these instances?

Re: Beware! Beware! they are out to get you.
 

interesting question,she certainly should get something,tell her to check it out.

Re: Beware! Beware! they are out to get you.
 

I think we should all have to carry the cars documents when we are driving like they do in Spain. Save all the producer messing about. She would have shown her documents and been away.

Re: Beware! Beware! they are out to get you.
 

the police were doing their job and as far as am concerned did the right thing detaining her until satisfied she was ok to carry on,if anyone is at fault regarding insurance it will probably be the insurance companys fault due to admin error

wonder how prople would feel if she was let go and ran a child over rushing to her meeting and then it turned out she wasnt insured

ps:

iv learned to talk nice to cops when pulled over, been narky and argumentitive dosnt speed them up infact its more likely to slow them down even if you are in the right

Re: Beware! Beware! they are out to get you.
 

Yes I agree also I'm not disputing them pulling her over and I agree that is what should be done. But she was pulled over because it flashed up on their records that she had no insurance, when she did, and somehow this had been missed from the system which isn't her fault and has maybe cost her. Just bad luck I guess.

Re: Beware! Beware! they are out to get you.
 

if i was to persue it i would start with the insurance company as to why the police didnt have her details

Re: Beware! Beware! they are out to get you.
 

What's all this inusrance people are talking about ? Is it not included when you pay for your tax disk then ? ;)

Re: Beware! Beware! they are out to get you.
 

Awwww you sounded so convincing then, I think even the police would have felt sorry for you :o
