Yup - LOL


A warrant has been issued for the arrest of former Formula One driver Eddie Irvine, after he was caught speeding on a scooter with no licence and no insurance, court officials have revealed.

The 38-year-old was arrested by police in London on July 24 this year for driving at over 30mph on a scooter through the city's Hyde Park, with no scooter licence and no insurance.

I hope he manages to dodge it- I have a lot of respect for Eddie.

Let them try to extradite him over a motoring offence- tossers.

Wurzel 11 December 2003 09:37 AM

Thought he lived in Monte Carlo anyway?

what would scooby do 11 December 2003 09:38 AM

Eddie is a loon at the best of times :D

scoob_babe 11 December 2003 09:39 AM

but if he then crashed into your car, would you be as sympathetic?
Why should he be above the law (silly as it may be at times)

He isn't a warrant has been issued for him- I hope he manages to evade it, there is sod all going for the UK anyway, apart from relatives/friends I could happily live without ever returning.

I hope he dodges it as I said before.

The UK has some of the finest and most picturesque scenery in the world too... maybe you should work for the UK Tourist Board Nacro?

tiggers 11 December 2003 09:50 AM

Also please bear in mind he was in Hyde park, not the North Circular at rush hour. I too hope he gets away with it or gets sentenced to return to F1 as the sport was better off when he was driving - ata least he has some character.

tiggers.

what would scooby do 11 December 2003 09:52 AM

Maybe he'll just get community service - he could end up sound checking at Bedford Autodrome :D


P.s. the road through Hyde Park is far busier than the North Circular since congestion charges where brough in :(

EddScott 11 December 2003 09:54 AM

They'd do society more favours for arresting him for the hosting of that "Extreme....Jobs" on channel 5 last night!

Great guy but rather monotone for an hour show.

The only problem is getting to it through the mire of dross that fills the rest of the place.

Duck_Pond 11 December 2003 09:57 AM

:rolleyes: When dealing with the UK, your glass is always half empty isn't it? ;)

Jye 11 December 2003 09:59 AM

And France is full of French folk, that put me off going back for life :D

tiggers 11 December 2003 10:01 AM

Jason,

Just for you mate - I blame the government :D :D

Glad it's not just me that thinks like this - according to some on Scoobynet everything is personally Tony Blair's fault - makes you laugh really.

tiggers.

NACRO 11 December 2003 10:02 AM

No for me the glass is completely empty- I had enough of being b*ttf*cked by the tax man, paying over the odds for crap properties surrounded by thieving drongos/morons, parking fines (well the threat of them as I've never had one), the British attitude of sneering at success and hating a winner, the education system, the crap weather, bad food, overpriced alcohol, double standards, the class system and some other stuff I can't think of at the moment.

Good on Irvine- I hope he stays living the life of Riley on his yacht and leaves the corpse of the UK to rot in it's maggot infested grave.

tiggers 11 December 2003 10:04 AM

Nacro,

If you don't like it why don't you emigrate ;)

tiggers.

Duck_Pond 11 December 2003 10:06 AM

He has - he's infecting the French with his charm and good grace. ;)

tiggers 11 December 2003 10:07 AM

Yeah I know - hence the wink :rolleyes:

NACRO 11 December 2003 10:07 AM

lol maybe I'll take on a different nationality one day- for the time being being I'm quite happy being a non-UK tax paying ex-pat.


Tiggs 11 December 2003 10:07 AM

lol- what a bunch of moaners.....i love the UK, it allows me a safe place to live, lovely working enviroment, huge opertunity for earnings, etc, etc

you lot should just go live in Oz with all the bugs!

T

ps- irvine is a ****, if it was a cop with no ins you'd want him hanged!

Scooby96 11 December 2003 10:09 AM

NACRO does have a point in some respects....

tiggers 11 December 2003 10:09 AM


if it was a cop with no ins you'd want him hanged!
Yeah, but that's different ;)

tiggers.

Regacy 11 December 2003 11:30 AM

I presume he'd just buy you another car with the loose change that falls out of his pocket as he picks himself up......
unless he's spunked it all on flash houses, boats, cars, girls, helicopters and any other toy he likes the look of........

Luke 11 December 2003 11:38 AM

Hope they throw the book at him.... he's a bit of a wanker.

DrJP 11 December 2003 01:23 PM

I agree, I hope they do him. He obviously thinks he can take the p**s. I have no time for people who drive without a liscence/insurance etc.

NACRO 11 December 2003 01:33 PM

DrJp he probably had better things to worry about......once you get out of the small minded UK where people worry endlessly about crappy red tape and whats "right" you find that you take life as it comes and not worry about whether you are insured to drive some crappy little 'ped. He'll pay the price for his "crime" when and if he returns in the meantime I imagine he's laughing at the UK's legal system while he sits in his yacht with a supermodel on his d*ck (to paraphrase someone else) :D.

I like him- he's nobodies fool except his own.

Luke 11 December 2003 01:35 PM

Nacro

he treats people like a bag of poo. he is rude and doesnt have any excuse for this. Also its a bad example to set.

MooseRacer 11 December 2003 01:40 PM

Luke, might seem a strange question but - have you posted on the CTC forum?
