Well, what a great/crap day!

Great having it large, ice and snow, massive slides etc, good laugh, me in the nova, Cooltiger in his corsa!

Then I overcooked it into a kerb, the wheel is now 1" further back than it should be!

Not being quitters we went elsewere, were nice and happy, nobody around etc!

The police turn up to pull both of us, Adam just drives off and ignores them, then they do me, section 59, (my 3rd one) and £60 for a headlight!

I didn't believe them about the headlight, so got out, and it was off, so I tapped it, and it came straight back on!

£60 down, and I'm on my final warning, if I bell around anymore, then there crushing the car! lol


Just curious, as my mum got carjacked, window smashed, threatened with a hammer, and dragged out of the car, the 2 lads got nothing for it, as it's only classed as "agrivated" burglary!

Just fooked off tbh!

Copper was annoyed about the 4 new tyres too lol

looked at them, then said to the passenger, no need to get the guage out!

I was loling inside!

last year i got stopped and asked 3 times in 10 mins if i put the front tyres on the back. i said no but is there any offence hidden in there .

Why did you accept a fine for a broken headlight, you shouldve gotten a VDR, Vehicle Defect Rectification Notice, seven days to get it checked at a mot garage and stamped up to show at the fed station, if youve been fined then its cos theyve had your pants down or you got points and are not telling us!

MattBrown
20-12-09, 08:15 PM
I'd have said "what the **** has it got to do with you?"

I'm seen as a criminal, and they have spelt my name ring on the docs!

So they can smoke pole:)

Dont worry about it then, never ever sign anything at the roadside, they will pressure you to do it but they cannot make you do it as you need legal representation to sign anything legal!

I got section 59's when I was 14 and 16!

Minimotos, and mopeds!

I must have signed them! lol

if they send anything through, I'll just go to the station and say, 1, I never signed it, 2 they spelt my name wrong, after copying my liscience, even though it's correct on there!

When I enquired about it at a police station, they said a Sect 59 warning can be verbal. I got no paperwork at all but I've heard of people getting packs through the post?!

When I got my moped one Oct 08- Oct 09, it was definately on the system, as whenever I was pulled, the police mentioned to me about the section 59, I had then to say it was for an offencively loud exhaust, trying to weelie, and sliding the ass end about lol

However, got no pack sent through or anything! lol

JUst pisses me off tbf!

How is me on a carpark in the middle of nowwhere, a danger to small children?

I was less than impressed, if I dick about within the next 12 months, then My car get impounded lol

Benn
20-12-09, 09:07 PM
Ah so you haven't been fined every time?

Why didn't you sort it first time? After all its a headlight.. It pissed me off seeing retards driving around with one off tbh.

Any time you mess about the filth look at is as a danger to some one.. That's one of their lil perks of power..

Nooooo lol

The section 59 was for "Drift king" impersonations!

The light was the £60 penalty, but, as said, It genuinely had only just gone out, and they have spelt my name wrong, and not made me sign it lol

To be fair this is annoying. Just witnessed a mouth breather in an Escort estate absolutely bombing it with a headlight out... and some 'kids on board, keep back' motif things in the rear window :roll: all the while hassling other road users by not 'keeping back' :wtf:

I nearly got done from the same snowy shenannigans in a car park a few years back, but as the patrol car came in to have a 'word', the lady driver understeered into a curb. They just limped off back to the station whilst we were all properly laughing and pointing.

I cant see anything wrong with a dick about in a carpark so long as theres no one about and no one elses cars are parked up around you. Just sucks to be you that you're useless at it lol

I got stopped for it a good few years ago, empty carpark about one in the morning, copper came over in a transit and i didnt spot him at first, getting carried away in my powa slides and suchlikes, he asked what i was doing when id finally spotted him and stopped, i replied id never driven in snow before and was making my car loose control so i could practise correcting it and teach myself what to do.

He laughed and said well ive been sat over there for ten mins watching you and youre getting pretty good/cocky at it so its clear youve done it before and are just playing so what ya really doing?

I was like oh, busted then yes im playing but he said my bullsh*t excuse actually made sense and although he couldnt condone me doing it he was going to head off and come back in about half hour and that i should make sure i wasnt there when he returned:thumb:

thats not true as the section 59 is on the vehicle i beleave. so if you get one on one car then take it home and jump in another then that new car is clear

Actually yes, you're right, I got an asbo type thing for 12 hours and the section 59 is on the car for 12 months.

What pisses me off the most is typically the cops took hours to respond to who ever made the call of noisy cars which was before I turned up and some idiots while I was arriving, cops turned up an hour or so later and gave everyone a section 59 (by which time the idiots had gone), we were all sat in our cars engines off and no music on.

if you got 2 sect 59's within 12 months, they would take whatever car you happen to be driving at the time, not the car thats registered to you.

Either the copper told me wrong or I've got it confused a little, but I'm 99% sure what I posted is what the cop told me and I've lost the slip they gave me.

section59s are a load of crap imo. i 'apparantly' was issued the very first one around my area back in 2004/2005. the cops pulled me and said theyre giving me this warning, i thought nothing of it. a few days later i got another one and next thing i knew a recovery truck came lol i went to the compound the next morning and they didnt have a clue what a 59 was and just gave me the car back without any permission from the cops. A few weeks later i got another one and impounded again Lol.

It wasnt until over a year later when people online were going on about it like they are something new and now cops seem to be giving everyone them everytime you get pulled. 95% of the time though they are just verbal and means nothing.

Luckily for me i dont dick about anymore so its been a while since iv had one...

even when I was a yooth I never got any, infact I've only been pulled over twice in 11 years of driving... once in the annual drink driving testing and once to be told that a brake light was out (nothing bad came of that as it was a curtosey thing)

Welsh Dan
21-12-09, 02:22 PM
I've been pulled over a few times but never for my driving. I've been breathalysed twice, pulled over once because flux hadn't put my car on the MID and another time so the copper could check that I was the owner of the car because a lot of novas and mk2/3 astras had been nicked locally that fortnight.

I've done my share of public autotesting aswell, so you young'uns need to pick your location and timing better lol.

I've been pulled over a couple times but that's for 'routine checks' i.e licence, tax, owner of vehicle etc as I drive a car that's likely to be stolen.

21-12-09, 02:49 PM
Dicking about in the snow is fun but there's a time and place. Obviously if you're not experienced enough to control the car in a slide, then don't "practice" (commonly, "dick about") where there's kerbs to hit or the police are likely to show up.

[edit] If you couldn't swim, would you try to learn by jumping out of a boat into shark infested water?

I'm the same as stu, in 11 years of driving, I've only been pulled a couple of times (plus two interactions with the fuzz whilst I was parked up). They never bother me in the Celica lol
