It is a cheap way of putting someone in a police uniform on the streets to make it look as though they have employed more police!

Unfortunately, what Les says is true.

I shan't tread further here, other than to say I work in London and many of the PCSOs can't speak the language of our country, and certainly cannot write it.

I wholly accept..... Oh I can't be arsed.

They have no powers more than you do, by the way.

They call police when they find something.

A fair point Felix, but surely it would be even easier to just tell people to be careful and try driving slowly through the wet bits

Actually scrub that, given the mental capacity of the average Glossop dweller, that isn't going to work is it

I went into town to take some nice piccies last night. I was about to take a shot of a little bridge over a narrow road, when a Range Rover came through. It was quite funny really - there was no actual reason for him to go through (the road doesn't go anywhere), and despite it opnly reach about 1 ft deep, he bottled it and drove onto the footpath.

Mildy interesting fact - 1990-' Renault TDs used to have the air intake behind the front bumper, so more than 6" of water, and up it went, wrecking the engine. It's a good job they don't have such glaring design faults in modern French cars...
