God damn, you must have ***** like cannon *****!!!!!!!!!!!
























Nice one!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Very funny

However, the offence of "Obstruction" springs to mind...

 

Nice one gooner

 

that would make a fantastic trigger happy TV scetch.

 

ha ha! yeah, the Trigger Happy character with the huge afro could stand in front of the camera!

 

Nice one m8 ... good on ya !!

Top man.

wish i coulda seen his face

one up for the scooby massive

 

Now if only we could get a contingent of van drivers cruising about the UK and stopping just in front of cameras....

 

Fantastic

However, if the police pushed it, isn't it obstructing an officer in the course of their duty which is a criminal offence?

Just interested before I go and get myself arrested

 

How is this causing obstruction? The police would have to prove your sole motive for stopping was to block the camera van's view?

All they have to do is ask you to move & then if you say "no" then technically they can nick you for obstruction (of a Police Officer in the course of his duties).

However, not all camera vans are manned by plod, some are civvies...

 

Unless it was a lorry that just happened to require his 30 minute break and it coincided with that layby...

 

For the pedants, I am of course referring to the lorry DRIVER requiring his break and not the lorry itself.

 

There is no stopping the motoring public using a layby for the correct purpose, provided of course the vehicle and driver are legal!!!

 

One of my fave stories from the land of Sunny Scunny, as reported in the local paper some years back now, concerns the bloke who was stopped for speeding, by an early mobile unit.
He was so annoyed that he proceeded to drive up and down the same stretch of road, flagging drivers down, and warning them. After he'd done it about 6 times, he was stopped, and told to desist!
The officers were amazed when they saw him parked about half a mile down the road, again warning oncoming drivers with flashed lights and gestures. They again warned him, and told him to move on.
15 minutes later they were again amazed to see matey apparently fixing something to a lamp post about 400 yards from their position. On investigating, they found it to be a home made sign proclaiming "Speed trap! Slow Down!"
At that point, matey was arrested.
Boy, he must have been really p*ssed off!

Poor bugger!!!

 

Nice one

 

What was he doing wrong?

Isn't he just slowing cars down thus creating safer roads. The police should be thanking him. He's helping them in deterring speeders.

Unless of course it wasn't about road safety but cash generation - hmm who'd think of such a thing?

ooooh, how naieve (sp) a person I am!

 

Parking in a lay by is not an offence, I am led to understand that if there is a space in which to park there is nothing that can be done to stop this happening, however, ONLY in a layby, if it is a bus stop there is a problem as you should not park there anyway.

 

You want to try tripping up over a tripod when they get setup on the pavement....
