I have an ex friend, who is (drink) driving without an MOT, license or insurance. Bad you say, it gets worse. The reason he has none of the above is because he has a 3 year ban for drink driving, having been caught before

Now he was a friend, but his new b!tch is giving my bird major greef, threatening to "rip her *ucking head off" etc etc and this winds me up a treat.

Im thinking of shopping him but i feel id be doing it for the wrong reasons. What do peeps think on this one ?

You may think you're doing it for the wrong reasons but it's still the right thing to do.
Shop him.

Without question - Shop him.
Imagine the quilt you would feel if he knocked over and killed a child and you hadn't done the deed. Fair play it's not your fault, but it will probably stay with you for the rest of your life, not to mention the innocent family involved.

In case you missed it the first time.
Shop him

Rat this scum sucking ****** out. If you don't then you will be as much to blame if he kills someone in cold blood knowing you could of got him banged up out of harms way from the innocent road users. Also his bird sounds well skanky, wouldn't want her sniffing round my Scoob, as it were.

Shop him, and to be honest you should have done so before his bird giving yours grief made you think about doing it.

If you have any doubt this is what banned drink drivers can and will do if they aren't stopped...

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/humber/3042559.stm

The driver in this case was suspected to have been racing his also drunk mate. But there are still two 13-year old girls dead, all because a disqualified drunk driver was on the road.........

Still wondering what to do?

Call your local traffic division.

They take disqualified driving and drink driving very seriously and will act on any information you can give them.

You wont even have to give your name if you dont want to.

Call the Police or Crimestoppers. People like that shouldn't be on the roads. If you didn't know the guy, you'd have no problem with shopping him (I hope!). The fact that he's your mate doesn't make him safer - he's still a (proven) danger.

Bros has a point, do it to save his life if for no other reason, if he had a loaded gun you'd take it off him, same thing.

If he's a mate you should have a word with him first.... if that fails to stop him (and it sounds like it probably will) you'll have no choice but shop him. It might feel like you are doing it for the wrong reasons, but if you've spoken to him first you have done all you can..... besides, you could be saving him from a very long prison sentance if he kills someone

No, wait until he crashes and injures someone, then just feel really guilty for the rest of your life.

If it eases your conscience, you could send him an anonymous warning letter that if he does not stop driving immediately he will be reported to the police.
