Did they put that of the traffic cops program? Saw one similar once where he travelled up the wrong side and also failed to notice the several police cars behind him

Most likely she'll just hand her licence into the police station and nothing more will be said. Ridiculous really, happenned to an old boy by me years ago, drunk as a skunk, crashed into three cars in his jag, staggered out with the car abandoned onto his cul-de-sac. Filth arrived but due to him being a VERY prominent local businessman the drink drive element was dropped as he "was too ill to give a sample as he had suffered a mild heart attack". He then dissappeared to Spain for a few months and when he came back handed in his licence. Hmmmmm.

Any offence where by people could have been seriously injured or killed as a result should have a life time ban especially if the person is old like that, I mean let's say they got a 2 year ban, would it really be wise to let her loose in a car again when she's even older


And absolutely at " police had to put their car infront of hers" before they could get her to stop, I mean WTF? Anyone who can't see a police cars flashing lights in their rear view mirror also deserves a lifetime ban IMO.

Get tougher on these folk who clearly shouldn't be on a public road.

At that age having your licence revoked is pretty much the same thing !

You shouldn't but sadly in this country there absolutely is one rule for one and another for another.

There is a recent case where a woman was given eight weeks for canceling her brothers wedding because she hated her sister in law, blah blah blah !

Last year only half of all sexual offences resulted in a custodial sentence, work that out !

This is what happens when people refuse to give up their licence.
