I don't remember the article saying that she had lied under oath in the court. 
swearing on the bible for me would be nonsensical as i'm an atheist
i'd happily lie and swear on the bible, it's a book of lies as far as I'm concerned.

it doesn't sound like she attended court in any of the articles i read but isn't oath irrelevant unless you're religious?

I don't believe that Bibles are still used, but I'm sure this forum has an expert who would be able to enlighten us.

If you sh*t the bed, simply admit it, you only look daft when trying to make up some feeble excuse. How many people would have the balls to say "yes sir it was my right foot that caused the car to travel at that speed, I'm a silly sausage"

Not trying to change the topic but in the cry rape cases do you think it is right that the woman can now be sent to jail??
) But i can see where you're going.. it doesn't prove anything, lying about something minor (like 3 points - which we've all done) as opposed to lying about rape (i hope none of us have done) IS different..
it's like saying whacking someone once round the head is the same as stabbing them 15 times so long as they survive.. its all 'violence'..
it's far from the same
my world is not black and white.. it's not even shades of grey.. it's full colour

He chuckled, said he's impressed that I was honest, told me it looked like my rear tyre was slightly low in pressure, said he like the interior colour combo, asked how big the boot was and drove off.....
Now I'm sure if I'd been an arse he would of smacked me with a ticket.
