Fines

Fines

I got two £30 Police fines in the space of a week, in early January, for not having any tax on my old car...i paid both pretty much straight away (along with some tax ) & thought that was that...

This morning a letter arrives from the DVLA and they have charged me another £46 per fine, for the same fucking thing :evil:

I can't believe it

PS. Yes, i know i should have had tax/notified the DVLA that my car was off the road, but 2 fines for the same thing? Cunts.

I think you only have to pay the higher of the two. I might just be making that up, but it rings some bells for some reason.

fines...tell me about it. jay passed his hgv test on friday and had to drive the lorry up from london to newcastle. stopped at some services to fill up with petrol then nip to the loo, came out and he'd been clamped. had to pay £200 before they'd take it off needless to say i'm not too happy!

ridiculous how much people can fine you

- The Nazis have taken over

Re: Fines

Same has just happened to me. Cunts

Was on 8th Jan. Got a £30 fine, paid it. Then now i get a letter through the door fining me another £43 for the exact same offence.

Robbing bastards.

Re: Fines

where did you pay your fine?

thats clearly a fucking rip of, you cant pay twice for them offence its not fucking legal robbing cunts

a lad @ work got a £50 fine for flicking a tab on the floor in town

Gutted

I got an £80 fine for being drunk last month. I was standing in a taxi q in Tynemouth, waiting patiently to get taken to the Romna in Whitley. All of a sudden, a cop in disguise cuffs me and my mate for being d&d - we weren't causing trouble or owt, merely wobbling about.

The fucking pigs.

I bet that doesn't even closely resemble what happened.

Exactly.

aye, right still bad crack

Its true. The copper said he warned me earlier in the night but I know thats wrong because I was in the same pub all night until I went for the taxi.

I was going to contest the fine in court as I reckon I had him for a few things but the guy on the desk said I shouldnt bother as although I was innocent, although drunk, the CID would surely make some shit stick and i'd end up with a bigger fine.

I thinks it gone crazy nowadays, just another form of tax.

Apparently being really pissed affects your memory.

I wasn't really pissed and I have witnesses to the whole thing, including a sober lass who got threatened with pepper spray because she was arguing with the police officer as we had done nothing wrong.

I have nothing to hide, I'm not an arsehole.

Tell it to the judge.

why wud the CID get involed in a D&D?
