Done for Holding an apple! Hahaha

EH?
She was stopped and ticketed for holding an apple. Basically, not being in proper control of the car whilst turning a left hand bend. They can't say it was a mobile at first, then change it to an apple.
GSM1 - If CPS want us to prove the case - then that is what we have to do. Thousands of pounds are spent on all sorts of cases each day to try and prove offences, that is just the way it is.
Besides the helicopter would not have been tasked to do that specific job - it is multi tasked. i.e as it travelled back from doing an area search for a stolen car it would have asked to take some photos for this incident. The same will go for the patrol car.
Don't you think its better that if a case go's to court - you have all the evidence at your disposal.

Such a well thought out response!!! We're not all the same as the ones you so eloquently describe.

This may lead to me arguing the toss on irrelevant asides such as the one above but I'm damned if I'm going to be persecuted along with the other 1/4 of the population just because some people don't like it.

issue on bikers - when they come up your ****, are they there for a reason? to get slipstream, less air disturbence there or wanting me to go quicker or move over? have no problem with them being there just useful to know their thoughts...

No idea why they do it. It's not like they have far superior brakes if anything should happen in front. I suppose they're just a bit impatient, well, that or Despatch riders

Anti-biker? Not me. I was one myself once until I got fed up of dodging wayward motorists who forgot what their mirrors were for, etc. I'm just realistic about the fact that if a motorcyclist gave more room than they tend to do the cigarette would have been very unlikely to get anywhere near his visor.
Anyway, until you're driving a hydrogen powered car you can stick your anti-pollution ramble. Hypocrisy doesn't entertain me.
