Hi everyone,
My boat crew passed his test first time on wednesday. That's the good news. The bad news is that he was in Sainsbury's car park on friday and offered to move one of his friend's cars. Guess what, the BIB were there and he is now being done for driving without insurance.
He thought that a car park was not the highway and he was able to move the car. Apparently not. He has insurance for 2 other cars (a very old classic mini and a fiesta) but not entitled to drive other cars on the policy.
Any advice on whether this is worth defending and seek a sympathetic magistrate nor just swallow the 6 points and have to re-do his test would be gratefully received.
What really tee's me off is that in pre-target days, the BIB would have simply just given him a rollocking and let him on his way, but we must get our quota of arrests, mustn't we.
Probably lucky that his mate was not done for aiding and abetting (if he gave consent) or Jake was not done for TWOC'ing (if he didn't give consent) - 2 more potential arrests to the monthly target missed, there.
Thanks.
Cheer on ENGLAND for the Rugby tonight.
J'espère que nous battons l'équipe française de rugby ce soir
