them front windows were only letting 13% light through IMO the coppers were right to do this, it makes it hard to see bikers with such dark tints.

did anyone see that young lad in the lupo doing 124mph!!

As for that guy "not remembering" what happened when he came round that corner & hitting that poor horse... rrrrr... As if!

That poor little Rottie was abandoned as well I bet. Poor thing had a runny nose & a sore ear & was probably so frightened. I hope the ppl who dumped it saw that & feel thoroughly ashamed (not that they will if they were happy to dump a fine dog like that)

Sounds like someone who has illegal tints to me

I thought the copper was bang on though, he didn't make a big fuss, gave them the option to remove rather than the points and fine etc. Plus he didn't make them take the whole lot off. At the end of the day the tints were ILLEGAL, so you can't complain for getting pulled over. To be fair the woman probably wasn't aware about the law on tints as most aren't.

Not a fan of tints, They look shit, and as said on this thread, they limit vision... imagine hitting a biker, and having illegal tints?!

Who'd feel the cunt then.....

Why the fuss ONLY about hitting bikers ?
The cop was spot on with the illegal tints, the dopey cow confounded the lack of visibility by wearing dark shades inside a dark car, the selling dealer should get done as well.
As to the audi driver, yes he was a knob and dangerous, but as we heard there is TWO sides to every story, it was ONLY the fact that we did not see what he accused the bikers of that might make you think it was all one sided.
I get cut up by arsehole bikers every day, and sorry they are not, we have a biker round here who goes about with a blue mask over his lights AT NIGHT, so I suppose if he crashes, because he can't see it will be the cars fault for being in front!!
