Local police 'safety purge'
 

Someone I know has been booked today for not wearing a seatbelt, and During the 'booking procedures' the police now do (DLA etc), he was told that there is a safety purge ongoing in Hyndburn-
seat belts, mobile phone use, tyres, lights etc.
You have been warned!

We had this a couple of weeks ago, I posted about it, they wanted our driver to produce the necessary licence to carry waste cardboard, rubbish, etc from a customers house to the skip at our office.
I saw a car being booked just off willows lane at 7.20am this morning, was a little silver one with blacked out windows.

Must be a bit skint,

Best solution - hit the motorist.

Re: Local police 'safety purge'
 

It didnt come from anywhere cashy, was illegally parked, and was being booked, cant remember the street, but just off the top roundabout on willows lane, it wasnt playing any very loud, strange music for a change though!

Re: Local police 'safety purge'
 

Glad Police are booking motorists who don't pay Tax, Insurance, don't wear seat belts, use a mobile phone whilst driving, have defective tyres, etc its not hitting the motorist unfairly just making sure they obey the law

We spend a lot of money keeping our vehicles roadworthy and legal kitkat, we also spend a substantial amount on replacing stolen property! Never seems to get found though, but one of our drivers was pulled the other day for no infringements, and the van was spot on, that is what irritates me! Go catch the thieving tykes who had us over for 3000 quids worth of equipment a couple of months ago!
