What a shoddy bunch of Caulkheads.
Trevor who not very clever where’s all the old farts this week
I doubt many of them are caulkheads.
Why is it always about bad driving on the isle of wight and drugs
You try driving well when your off your nut on weed coke and alcohol. No point getting insurance either, just for driving home from pub/dealer, its a good job there are hardly any police on the Island.
In December last year, a copper pulled me over while driving through Newport High Street. He said I was driving with fog lights on. I pointed out that the bright ‘strip’ lights at the bottom of the front bumper below the leading lights are ‘run lights’; they stay on all the time. He then checked with the ‘central contact centre’ that I had insurance and the car tax was paid. He quizzed me further why I didn’t have a MOT registered on the vehicle. I pointed out that the car was only twelve months old, so it didn’t require an MOT yet. He was unaware that vehicles don’t need an MOT until year three.
I wish Island coppers would use their time more effectively in catching druggies, theft, and burglary, to name a few.
Because the island is full of drugged up and p*ssed up Numpty’s.
Maybe you shouldn’t throw stones in glass houses
Still growing your cannabis
Are you growing cannabis? I rather some dandelions
He cannabis was rubbish never buy off Trevor
How many are still driving this morning?
Another stunningly ineffectual attempts atjustice, why bother there is no deterrent anymore
The more drink/drug and speeders caught the more justification insurance company’s have to put everyone’s insurance up
WOW, courts really know what they are doing, banning someone from driving who has NOT got a licence.Attacking an emergency worker I thought was a straight prison sentence, how wrong I WAS….
Filth every week, plus flith walking the streets everyday.
Bring back the birch I say!!
