Mobile phone vigilante
 
From the BBC:

More than 20 motorists in Hampshire have fallen victim to a mystery vigilante who appears to target drivers spotted using mobile phones.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/h...re/4791439.stm

Though one person targetted claims not to even own a mobile.

Wonder if it's a biker who's fed up of idiots who drive whilst on the phone.

Maybe if the police did something to enforce hands free?

Lissa 14-08-06 04:42 PM

Bringing in the law requiring hands free was a farce. We spot at least a dozen drivers using a mobile every time we go out on the bike. People are doing it with impunity because camera's don't catch them in the act, do they? :roll:

And the problem with traffic cars is that they are not exactly inconspicuous are they! It can be hard work finding them when you can be seen from outer space :shock:

I have to admit that it peez me off when motorists are oblivious to their surroundings due to being on the phone. Recently what I have done is sat along side in traffic revving quite a bit. They, for some reason, get a bit miffed at not being able to hear their phone too well. Thats with a standard can on, looking forward to the looks on their faces when I gat a decent can.

All this proves is that some people are seriously unhinged. :roll:

Top man (or women). why don't the police leave this hero alone and go and do something useful? after all its probably more dangerous than speeding but doesn't collect as much revenue.
