You could sing owt you wanted back then,remember when they through banana\'s at the coloured players,coppers helmets were pebble dashed with spit.happy days................strange when you look back and how things have changed and probably for the better as well
Last summer my wife received a \"name the driver\" letter from a police force based in the southern part of the country. The date of issue of the latter was some six weeks after the date of an alleged speeding offence. With this in mind she wrote back to them citing the 14-day rule (after 14 days there is no obligation to answer their request).
They replied that that they had sent a letter within the required period.
She replied requesting a copy of the original signed letter, which they stated they had on file. They sent an unsigned computer printout with a different date to the date they originally said that they had sent the letter.
In reply, she pointed out their error and again requested a copy of their original letter.
They then sent back another unsigned computer printout with a different date to the previous letters, but not the date that they stated they had sent the original letter. This process continued, repeating itself until at about six months after the alleged offence, they spat their dummy out and said she was too late to reply to their request and they would charge her with the offence of not providing the required details adding that they would provide the official signed copy of the original letter as evidence in court.
Her next course of action was that she was going to raise an official complaint with the police regarding their action, this is an action that the police take seriously and investigate thoroughly. However, this weekend she received another letter stating that following her recent correspondence with them; that the matter had been closed and no further action would be taken. I suppose it saved her writing a letter of complaint!
The bottom line is they will never know who the driver of the car was and neither will we. Also we will never know if they actually did send a letter on the date they stated.
I would also add that throughout the saga, there where various discrepancies with their statements such as sworn statements of letters being sent 1st class on a certain date but the postmark showing a later date and 2nd class postage.
It is a shame that the constabulary are given the name of pigs as the pig is quite an intelligent animal who contrary to popular belief, keep the sleeping quarters of their sties tidy and clean. Why can\'t the police keep their own house in order and maintain a tidy house with respect to their documentation.
