I don't know how to fix it, I wish there was an easy answer to all of this. *sighs*Fenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07945553568341010805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3084007660501231065.post-34566776864547058532010-04-28T13:13:56.382+10:002010-04-28T13:13:56.382+10:00Fen - thank-you once again - it just doesn't s...Fen - thank-you once again - it just doesn't seem to matter and I really think that comes down to lack of 'real' penalties issues. The driver (woman) who was at fault this time was unlicensed, drunk and possibly stole the vehicle. Yet she is bailed already. Ready to offend again. can you see the problem?<br />Sure, bail is fine is some instances, but is THIS really a time to be allowing bail? - I'm sure I;ve read somewhere she is a multiple offender, but of course, court laws dictate this is not permitted to be discussed in the courts whilst this offence is being heard.<br />Crazy.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07010538586118008820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3084007660501231065.post-59851421631726972272010-04-28T13:06:49.733+10:002010-04-28T13:06:49.733+10:00sometimes I feel that even if they fined them exto...sometimes I feel that even if they fined them extortionate amounts it wouldn't matter, because a lot of them are unlicensed drivers anyway. They don't seem to give a rats.<br />I've had one speeding fine in all my life, for doing 3kms over the limit, down a hill in a brand new car I wasn't used to. I never drink drive and never will. <br />I hadn't driven for 5 years after going to London for 2 of those, then choosing not to have a car when I returned. Now I have a car I'm constantly surprised at how impatient people are and how risky their driving can be.Fenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07945553568341010805noreply@blogger.com
