just been down to petrol station to fill up for the afghan ride tomorrow and low and behold mr plod is in there and only goes and books me for a small number plate. nothing else wrong (he didnt hear the laser exhaust obviously) what a w***ker!! £60 quid down the swanny. what a complete w****er!!
Not our favourite biker cop by any chance?
Technically, he's in the right and you're in the wrong, but it is tight, if I was plod I wouldn't issue a ticket for a small plate. Very petty.
Watch out for a grey Audi A4, on a 60 plate!!
Unless he has changed his car, it sounds like a different PC to our usual one >:(. I was pulled last year for a slightly smaller plate (5mm) and given the same love note as you :( He had a silver BMW (see roxys friend on spotted section)
Just a bit petty if you ask me ::)

You would feel pretty pissed offed the driver got away with it and still complain the police never caught the driver.
I'm not condoning anyones actions, people are big enough to make choices, but I will say that the use of ANPR cameras is on the rise, especially next year with the Olympics, and if your plate can't be read they will pull you automatically.
Just so you know. I hate the barn door on mine but can't be added to change it :D

You managed to get loaded onto the Cornwall trip yet?
If or when you get pulled make sure they wright the ticket out correctly. I got pulled over about 3 years ago on my 50cc with a crate of Stella on the tank whilst under taking my mate . I no I was in the wrong big time but after checking the ticket and finding a fault they gave me back my fine and took my points off
Good point... Beware all.Quote:
