Wow how many people done for drug and drink driving it’s a disgrace
Drug driving on the Island seems to be a very big issue these days.
Stricter penalties should apply.
Instant driving ban and instant imprisonment.
This country is to soft.
Probably as there is hardly any physical presence of police except all the vans and cars parked in the car park of the station that people don’t fear getting pulled over any more .
If an MP visits the Island there will be a large presence
Law is only employed for the so called Elite
How many now on a band are still driving?
Probably all of them.
The Island appears to be Lawless
Van been parked along Great Preston Road with no Mot for months and is used on a regular basis
DVLA, Island Roads and local District Steward are aware of this and nothing gets done.
IT APPEARS ON THE ISLAND YOU ARE ALLOWED TO FILL ROADS WITH VEHICLES WITH EXPIRED MOTS
Good luck to anyone who can get away with out paying their way.
Things are bad enough in the current economic climate.
I bet there are loads of people missing MOT’s due to costs
WHY NOT IF THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH IT
Look at what MPs get up to!
I have seen the old van. It’s those old council houses along Great Preston Rd
why pay when u can drive around for free simples
“possession of an imitation firearm in a public place and possession of a knife blade/sharp pointed article in a public place”
and he gets a suspended sentence!!! Should be banged up for that.
That’s what I thought just shows how soft courts are
yes i quite agree
Erbalists at the wheel, peados et al. Came over two weeks ago a drove along Sandown seafront. Looked like a war zone. Councils and magistrates really doing a great job.
Warren Russell at it again total waste of space
