| Ian H. Can you clarify something for me regarding this incident? Amy seems to be saying that she had to give a statement at the scene of the accident. Is this proper? The Officer who attended the incident I was involved in sat me in his car and asked me to tell him briefly what happened. So I did. ... |

| Hi Amy. I'm a traffic cop and a forensic collision investigator. The normal police response to an incident such as this would be as follows; Firstly we’d ensure the scene was safe, then we’d check for casualties. If an ambulance is required we’d ensure it was travelling – often they’re already on sc... |

Just heard this news. Tragic.
I had the plesure of spending an afternoon with Paul and Claire at my place a couple of years ago. They were a joy to be with, and completely dedicated to the cause.
They will be sorely missed.
Utmost condolences Claire.

| Certain factions in this glorious part of the country seem to want to keep it to themseves. They want to rid the lakes of powered boats, they would charge tolls for entry and use of the roads, and as you say the wardens seem keen to target the flustered tourist rather than the real road obstructors.... |

| Again, thanks for all the help and advice. I've checked under the carpets and they seem dry. I have removed the wet cloth from the car and that has helped a bit. It may be possible that the pre sale valet has also caused additional problems, also the nature of my journeys, mostly short trips ,doesn'... |

| Thanks for your replies guys, The car has aircon, as have my previous two, but this one seems to have significantly more of a condensation problem than I've previously experienced even from an older car. I bought it new on September 1st. Here it is! http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f17/TrafficAnswe... |

But I've recently experienced a lot of internal condensation on the windows. Obviously with cold mornings this is prone to happen, but I've had so much conde... |

| 1.5 fatalities per year! I imagine someone would say “well if it saves just 1 life…..” but how many lives could have been saved if all that resource (I estimate 2000 SCP staff) had focussed their efforts elsewhere? Even if only simply patrolling the roads? But they are not even doing that! All they... |

Agreed! As has been clearly stated the inclusion of all collisions in the stats could only ever serve t... |

| Do you really believe that 60% of people stopped by the police give false details. This is incredible department of guesswork stuff. I don't believe that for a moment. What this might relate to is that percentage of those whose identity was doubted by the officer and who were brought in for further... |

| Could have been awaiting a vehicle travelling past which they would eventually tactically intercept (creating sterile areas etc), or simply kitting up to go to a firearms job. Not all AFOs are routinely armed. Many in fact, as we do, spend most of our times on trafpol work, and it would not be appro... |

ANPR definitely has some uses, and we have had some decent lock ups on the back of it. It needs to be updated with good quality intel for it to be effective.
I'll reserve judgement on its long term effectiveness. |
