Discretion is nice isn't it? Like not booking people for doing 80mph on the motorway etc

Just back from the cop shop. Went to the counter, guy came out, looked at both cover notes I had printed out, I explained I had been a fanny and he told me it's fine and he's quite content that the car has been, and is, insured. Happy days.
Not all coppers are arseholes  glad to hear they used some common sense.

Not really but alan was giving me a hard time in a post once when I said a police officer pulled me over for doing 80 on the motorway, saying I shouldn't have been doing that speed and should have got booked basically.

Think it's a thin line your on between getting let off and getting points/ban :/
Don't talk wet you don't get banned for no insurance.
