Very sad when people pick and choose which bit of democracy they adhere too.

The UK voted out, we are leaving.

Folks of the losing side should f***ing well grow up, and stop acting like kids in a play ground.

Going past a speed camera below the limit on a dual carriageway at the same time as an ambulance on blues goes past speeding, guess who got the NIP for doing 45mph because some dimwitted clerk didn't check the photos correctly ?

Should be easy enough to sort out but the form only gives the option to identify the driver or deny the offence and go to court, I need a 'wasn't me check your photos again' option. Going to give them a ring and send the form back with an explanation. Surely I dont have to go to court if they've made a mistake ?

It's less paperwork for them to fill in sending it to the NHS then the NHS sending it back again for them to fill in and send it back to the NHS. Good luck on this one but I think they're going to take your pants down.

Not if he was under the speed limit they won't but it will probably have to go to court to prove they made a mistake

Have you got a dash cam with gps as this could help verify your speed ?

Scumbag so called Labour MP's who stab their leader and more importantly their members in the back.

RIP Democracy

Sorted.
Gave the number on the form a ring and explained the situation, initially they argued saying I'd have to provide the information requested, deny the offence and have my day in court. Asked for someone in charge and told them all they have to do is re-check the photos and avoid wasting everyones time.

Told me they'd look into it, half hour later gets a phone call saying they were very sorry and a mistake had been made on their part and to ignore the NIP as it had been cancelled. Going to send it in anyway with an explanation as no doubt in a months time I'll get a summons for failing to supply driver details !

Customers that call you a liar when they have missed their taxi. We have trackers on the vehicles which clearly show where the car is and what time it is there. The customer still says that they were at the exact same place at the exact same time but our car wasn't there. Mind you it did take them 20 minutes to ring and ask where it was. :roll:

I can't imagine if they took them in the women's toilets that would go down to well either.
