There I was sitting in my car in sainsbury's car park whilst my other half was getting some shopping, pulled up in front of an s2000 and watched the owner get in, was going to talk to them but when I saw it was a girl owner I thought better of it .

Anyway she drives off and my mrs returns. I drive out of car park very slowly past some police. Next thing I know they pull out and with 20 yards have all the lights going. So I pull over totally confident as I have done nothing wrong, car is 100 pct legal (spent 2 grand this week on it including tyres ). As I pull in I notice I have no belt on

Copper get out '' are you exempt from wearing a seat belt sir'' (smug twat).
Anyway I explain but he writes me a ticket out anyway, no points though which I was relieved about. 30 quid though. Thing is I always use my seat belt I just made one mistake and it was a pure accident on my part. I bet if a been in a different car or was an oap they would have just gave me a warning


The copper that was with him looked embarassed his twat of a mate booked me.

There I was sitting in my patrol car in Sainsbury's car park, my partner just popped in to buy some doughnuts.

Was checking out one of those cool S2000's - thought about pulling it just to have a closer look, but it was a burd driving so thought better of it as didn't want to get done for harassment.

Anyway, she drives off and my partner returns with the bakery products, when a flashy Porsche 911 cruises past, would you believe it with the driver not wearing his seat belt. I'll have him I thought (smug twat).











Sorry Jamie, couldn't resist

On a serious note, I didn't think seatbelt laws would apply in a car park (?)

 

I don't see what he has to be smug about. He pulled you because you were breaking the law.

 

it's hard to forget wearing one when most cars have either a dashlight and warning beeper..

You weren't wearing a seatbelt. Stupid mistake really.

 

yes I know but he could have just warned me, i just drove out of supermarket and he pulled me over within 10 yards. it was a genuine mistake i am the last person who wouldnt wear a seat belt intentionally especially the speed i drive
