Top Cats Hat 10 #135 Posted February 14, 2019 1 hour ago, apelike said: She could of course take out a private prosecution and if successful claim a few bob that way. She doesn't need to, he has already admitted that the accident was his fault and her insurance company will be negotiating compensation as we speak.

Lockdoctor 10 #137 Posted February 14, 2019 (edited) The police have made the correct decision not to prosecute, given the fact he has now surrendered his driving licence. Edited February 14, 2019 by Lockdoctor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
ANGELFIRE1 10 #138 Posted February 14, 2019 I am no Royalist which comes as no surprise on this forum. But I cannot even imagine a young guy pulling out from a minor onto a major, causing a pretty bad accident and not getting his collar felt by Plod. It just would not happen, would it. That an old multimillionaire who was undoubtedly the cause of the accident that this thread is about, then relinquishes his licence should have no bearing on the case whatever. "Lady Justice is most often depicted with a set of scales typically suspended from her left hand, upon which she measures the strengths of a case's support and opposition. She is also often seen carrying a double-edged sword in her right hand, symbolizing the power of Reason and Justice, which may be wielded either for or against any party. Then the blindfold which represents objectivity, in that justice is or should be meted out objectively, without fear or favour, regardless of money, wealth, fame, power, or identity; blind justice and impartiality."

Angel1. How many 90 odd year old are getting hauled up before the beak after car accidents? Not many. He wasn't drunk, he pulled out of junction with the sun in his eyes. If this was any other 90 odd year old, we wouldn't be talking about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
