Just a thought but if people didn't speed or park illegally they wouldn't have any fines to pay - now that really would stuff this labour government that so many of you seem to detest so why not try it?

you obviously have missed the Dozens of Documentaries and Newspaper reports of Traffic Wardens Booking people Legally parked just to hit their "Targets" .

Doesn't seem fair that the motorist is asked to support violent criminals with their debt to society.

The much loathed Mrs Turner (traffic warden) famously ticketed a hearse outside of the library.

The funeral director was collecting the deceased from a flat above.

When confronted about it later she insisted that she thought it was an estate car!
