Ridiculous mis-use of authority.
Good point Dreamer regarding "bogus" traffic enforcers.
I try to have faith in the police, but to be told only this weekend that "we can't do anything unless they [some scallies throwing railway ballast at my house] damage something" this faith is disappearing fast
Now where can i find one of those...........................

It's usually orchestrated by old farts, who have too much time on their hands and whose reactions have slowed.
They think all cars are going "too fast & someone will get killed", etc.
Of course, the anti-libertarians love it & for plod, it's something they can be seen to be doing to gain brownie points with the Daily Mail Islanders, since crime fighting is now impossible.
The idiots are on the rise, I'm sorry to say.

I have come up with a brilliant plan. I will buy a high-vis jacket, borrow a radar gun and stand at the corner of my street. I will then pull people over that are speeding, give some a lecture about speed and the associated nonsensical statistical data and others will be given a NIP. They won't know that I have no authority to do any of this and could also be a nice little earner at
