Betts is really cut up about it, he was told to expect to get a ban, so the scoob may have to go (Absolute worse case scenario)

Just to add, I didn't notice him behind me till the B's & T's , but I reckon he was waiting for me to speed off after Betts as well ........... Lucky for me, I am not a speeder .

When Betts came into work this morning, he wasn't making much sense at all, as he's just so devestated about it.

It seems strange that he didn't get a producer, wasn't breathalised (especially considering we were at the H/H) or an endorsable penalty notice, mind you with computers, the police can get all the details they need I guess.

I just hope it all turns out ok, Mark included too

I have no idea how these thing work, just hope he gets off, I would feel devestated too if it happened to me.
But, would have thought he would have been given some paper work, I have been when I have been routinely stopped, gave me a form to take with me to the cop shop, to show driving licence, mot, insurance etc.
Good luck to Betts I say.
Alex.

I am led to believe, through rather recent personal experiance, that a police officers word is as good as a NIP now. The court will have 6 months in which they can summons him.

Hope it works out for ya mate

But i am suprised they he wasnt breath tested.!
