Thread: Road side drug and Alcohol testing in our area today

There is a cop that sits on the road behind my work on average 3 mornings a week. Same cop , same place , sits there from about 7am till about 8am. you cant see him till you come round the corner so your stuck once your on there. Seen him get about 10 punters this year .


I got no problem with it , too many idiots on the road as it is, don't need them ****ed and / or stoned as well.


Cheers Ean

Good to see them taking these clowns off the road in my view...

Trouble is half of them don't have a license to take away in the first place and don't seem to care...

Exactly right Mark. Looking at some recently released figures, the boozers and the unlicensed are responsible for the vast majority of fatalities on our roads.

But she'll be right mate, lets just buy another speed camera because that will fix it.

Cynical you say..... who me?

Many years ago I worked for a company that had an alcohol culture. Heaps of the guys got pinged for drunk driving, did licence loss stop them or learn them a lesson. NO IT DIDN'T they just drove unlicenced a still drank. I did not fit in well as I didn't drink so I was classed as the outcaste by them and was the butt of their jokes.

I worked in a department like that Mario. Transferred out of there not long after I started!

All good I reckon.
I particularly like the camera/gadget that checks number plate/owners relative to unpaid fines/warrants etc. Driver has to pay on the spot, or he loses his/her car,..which is entirely appropriate IMHO.
It was on the news this week how many toll fees/fines/warrants etc of all kinds remain unpaid.

Pickles, I sister got pulled up twice by cops at one of those plate recognisers, and there were unpaid fines. But it was not hers, it was the previous owner. Even though the ownership had changed, the system doesn't appear to care. The cops told her to get new number plates, which she did and hasn't been stopped since. She was however not happy having to pay for new number plates .
