HW682 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Chances are,it was a newbie Police officer trying to prove his worth,but i bet this will bite him on the bum! pasted from web.........The Daily Mail says the policeman involved was PC Stuart Gray, nicknamed 'PC Shiny Buttons' for his zealous approach to the job. Last year, he issued a £50 fixed penalty for littering to a man who accidentally dropped a £10 note in the street.

Mungler Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Those police officers obviously missed the "have some ******* common sense course". I hope they understand how instances like this damage the whole police force's reputation. Well done them. Nobbers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellow Bear Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) You notice, however, that no one is ever "done" for smoking at the wheel - probably more dagerous than using a phone if you drop the fag. Eating sweets or fruit terribly dangerous - having a roll of smoldering leaf shreds perfectly acceptable apparently :lol: Edited January 28, 2010 by Yellow Bear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njc110381 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 There are two breeds of coppers. You get the reasonable ones which take up 95 per cent of the force, then you get the other 5 per cent that let the side down. What a numpty. I like the quote about last year he gave a littering ticket to a guy who dropped a tenner. Why is this guy not emptying the bins in the station? He's obviously no good for anything else!

Fat Dog Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Good that the police have so much time on their hands to catch the 'real' criminals in society. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eating sweets or fruit terribly dagerous - having a roll of smoldering leaf shreds perfectly acceptable apparently ??? Years ago, when I used to smoke, I was driving with a cigarette and wound the window down to flick ash out of the window (see warning footnote). I caught the edge of the window and knocked the end off the fag, and it blew back into the car, and hit my seat back. I had leaned forward and the fag end actually dropped down the back of my strides into the crack of my harris :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o That made me jump and I frantically tried to get it out. This resulted in me kangarooing up the street for about half a mile. :lol: Warning footnote : If any H & E obsessed wallflower is going to post a lecture about where my fag ash could have gone (animals/pedestrians/cyclists etc etc etc), I'm not interested, OK.

arjimlad Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 He'd better try not to sneeze when he gets in front of the magistrates, or they will do him for contempt at this rate. Flogging and cauterisation of the nasal passages perhaps.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
