driving in the snow, police fines and points

[danb87]

its that time of year again, where the police have too make there quota on the amount of fines they rake in. a local bobby droppe them in it at a local neighbour hood watch meetin. my aunty told me bout it. absolute joke.

they propper nuckle down on the drink driving aswell. an breathelise, 97% off the people they pull over, over december january period.

that shows the police are just as much a criminal as the man stealing lead too feed his family on xmas day

but if ur driving and it falls on ur windowscreen and u smash into sum1 which u could avoid. or it falls behind u and it hits sum1s car and they crash or its damaged.
its stupid, lazy and irrasponsible not to clear it
be ud be the first to complain if uv just bought a cruise bumper or a carbon lip and a big chunk of snow/ice fell off sum1s car and damaged it.

the thread would title
"some p**k dint clear there snow off there roof and bumper ruined"

If it falls on to windsreen I'll switch my wiper blades on! All I need when I drive is clear windscreen, lights, front side windows and the side mirrors - THATS IT. Had a couple of inches of snow on the bonnet and the roof - drove for 30 min till it's all melted - saw the police car like 5 times, had no problems so far. In fact I've tried to clear some of the snow but it had a thick ice under it, so I didn't do it. In severe snow condition your car will be white in 10 minutes, while driving - do u have to stop every 10 min on the motorway to clear the snow or otherwise it is illegal to drive?

The country is looking in the wrong direction of safety and money saving, they should make the snow tyres compulsory and make them dirt cheap so people would buy them as well as pay the garages to provide free installation - that would save millions of pounds in the UK and minimise the risk of accidents as well as lower our premiums.

Imagine if your wage was 100K a year and it was reduced to 20K, it would be difficult to adjust your life stile isn't it? well this is exactly what is happening to the UK economy - I was about to go to the Football tomorrow but they cancelled the match because of the weather, they do have an underground heating on the stadium (brand new one), but it said that they can't afford the heating costs!

haha just saw this. He's got a small igloo up there :haha: :haha:

This is in Russia - I can see the number plate! Apparently it's legal out there and the police probably would only laugh and take some pictures.

Toyo Snowproxes S942 - the best tyres I had in my life for Ice, snow, rain - the best choice since OCT to APR in the UK! Paid J33 - cheaper than many other tyres!

I've experienced Absolutely pure ICE recently - slight wheelspin and then it goes like I dream - impossible on the summer tyres! I'd rather pay for the winter tyres then buy a new car or pay expensive insurance premiums or risk my life, or be responsible for someone else's life - it's cheaper and safer, not just for me!

The reason the police breathalyse more people is because more people are stupid enough to drink drive at this time of year.
