Police White Van Man

One of my pet themes is that the police are not policing my area. That is, the bobby on the beat variety. However, I did come across White Van Man police in an undercover surveillance operation targeting motorists on Beverley Road. Twice I saw the prowling BMW and Subaru Jam Sandwiches pounce on unsuspecting drivers.

At least 2 offences being committed there.

Parking within 15ft of a junction.
Parking on double yellow lines.

Could be that anyone clocked by this beast could appeal.

This my friends is an ANPR (Automatic Numberplate Recognition System) van

It is used to help combat the illegal use of the roads WE pay for. Such as no insurance, no tax, no MOT or in some cases cars that have been red flagged as those used in illegal activity. I.E drug trafficking a dealing.

I can't see how moaning about two minor traffic contraventions is justified when the greater good is being achieved by this vans presence.

With respect, thanks.
