Pulled by Police - mobile phone???
..
|
if he aint got the right number themn nothing, unless
a: persons whos number it is was using there phone at the time b: police get back in touch to get correct number |
I knew it was a good thing to carry around 2 phones! :norty:
|
Hope he gets done, amount of planks I see driving on the phone hacks me off (have had a bump cos some plank was on his phone and failed to notice traffic stopping infront of him!)
And what is it with people who drive £60'000 mercedes and don't bother with a car kit.. saw some chap on the motorway with a phone strapped to his head in a brand new merc... Thats just daft! |

The policeman then asked him for his IMEI number of his phone, my mate then read out the worng number (the policeman didnt check). The policeman also asked for the phone number of the mobile, my mate then read out the wrong number (the policeman didnt check). When my mate asked the Policeman why he wanted the IMEI number and phone number- the Policeman then said it was so he could check whether he was on the phone or not through the phone records. What will happen?? What do you guys think?? They could then get the right numbers and charge him again.. For the record, I agree with satancom... |
I would imagine the copper would check, find the numbers to be incorrect, and would no doubt have taken a note of his car registration (unless he got that wrong!), would then know the driver had been lying, would know his address details and would probabaly nick him for trying to pull a fast one and getting away with it.
Probabaly not the smartest move (twice) he ever made... |
Yes I would imagine he could get done for obstruction.

Perverting the course of justice is an imprisonable offence. It's what people get done for when they say it was their partner or a random untraceable "friend" driving the car.
So the choice is £60 fine & a couple of points or 6 months jail with Bubba - does your friend feel lucky? |
ring ring?????

There have been stories circulating of the Police using mobile phone records to nick people for speeding, using the time between cells to work out average speeds! lol... Personally I doubt that's true, but it's just one more reason why I turn my mobile OFF before I get in the car. For the life of me, I can't understand what could be so all fired important that it can't wait until you get where you're going. My Missus says she can't get hold of me, and I say "damn right you can't " !

I have a bluetooth car kit in my impreza, cost about £50 and fitted with a few plugs.. If my phone goes whilst driving I will answer it, tell whoever it is Im driving and will call them back later..
There is little excuse for talking on the phone whilst driving to be honest, and I believe the only time you get away with it would be if you were talking to pld reporting a drunk driver etc! |

**** for using mobile phone in the first please, even bigger **** for lying to to the police. Hope he gets what he deserves.

The lying bit is just stupid...
Why can't people just admit they made a mistake/been an idiot and deal with the consequences? |

That said, the people who sit on a phone having lengthy conversations while driving are tits. :) |

Not true due to the way mobile phone cells work. For instance, over the course of a mile you can jump from one cell to another and back again. |
Err but ...

Police will be knocking on his door very soon to cut his balls off!
That'd happen if they were anything but useless, forget all the scare mongering that goes around here, noone will ever bother to persue this. |
I'd imagine what will happen is the Police will check the numbers, realise they dont tally or are registered to someone different to the person who owns the car, and will be knocking on his door soon.
But I have to say it, is your mate a complete plank ? Its not exactly a secret that you arent supposed to use the mobile in a car, and that you will get done for it if they see you. Still suppose it could have been better for him, he may have just mowed down some innocent pedestrian while taking his 'vital' call, and he could have just driven away :cuckoo: |
the only way he can get away with it is if the phone is on pay as you go and not down to him and he gets rid of it

The amount of times ive nearly been side swiped on the motorway by some halfwit on their phone is unreal same goes for people texting, they spent half the time driving hiding their phone and looking down at it to text!:brickwall
|
2 phones is where its at.
|
how about 7 phones?????
even better DONT USE YOUR MOBILE WHILST DRIVING |
I dont agree with driving while using phones, bluetootch headsets are cheap enough these days or enough cars have it built in, but I think the police man was trying to scare you into not doing it again to be honest. Hopefully your friend will learn from this !
