Mine's writing/typing.. normally when I'm tired it gets even worse when I'm tired, but I just try to re-check my posts before posting.. but anyway sorry for derailing LMAO.
Uhm when you said the copper said "you're young be careful in the future" and that you have to pay £150 to get your car back.. just be like "yup sorry" and drive away slooooowly.. and don't get done again..maybe you're just going to get let off with a caution.. |

I think this section 59 thing damned unjust, an easy way to give you a hefty fine with no evidence required.
However, I thought it was necessary for you to be warned BEFORE they could sieze your vehicle, since I presume there was no other reason for them to sieze it. Regarding further action, did they give you any reason to expect further punishment? As if you were under the speed limit then that isn't a worry, and "your tyres were making a noise" is shaky ground for any other charge. What were you doing? Repeatedly lapping the roundabouts or what? I think I would be contacting a brief. Would this sort of thing be within the remit of legal cover given with the car insurance if there is any?

![]() Lozzo that was an unfair generalisation to make mate ![]() Anyway, enough derailing this thread with ![]() ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In response to the OP: Sorry to hear about this. Sounds like the coppers were abusing their power. As Lozzo said, go and sit down with the supervisor if possible and have a chat about it. +1 on getting legal advice as well. Hope it all gets sorted. Keep us posted ![]() Last edited by joshmac; 14-06-09 at 12:46 AM. |

Legal advice, THEN further chats with the coppers.

Does anybody know the procedure if a brief is required?
I've got legal cover on my insurance, would this be covered? Legal aid? Or out of your own pocket?

Try citizens advice first, they're free. Has the OP come back yet and said anything about getting a warning, I did try and read through but got confused with all the arguments about spelling!

Thank you... I was ever so disappointed until I read that.
I do have the odd one, Tim. |
