Basically they have given the racist scum of Luton Council a good kick in.<br /> This was only possible because of my tory MP Andrew Selious, it just goes to show not all MPs are the same. Luton has two labour MPs and 40ish labour councillors. All of them did sweet FA to help me, what a bunch of complete WANKERS. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=39438&page=2#post-135401 Wed, 22 Aug 2012 23:17:41 +0000 Ironduke 135401@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Indeed.

As I understand speeding, the lucky registered keepers pick up speeding tickets unless they advise of somebody else being the driver. If indeed similar, the responsibility for proving ownership of the car had been transferred may lie with you and not 'the prosecution'. </p> <p>See background for Chris Huhne's prosecution for perverting the course of justice charge.</p> <p>Presumably, as with matter which start in the criminal court, simply paying the charge after bailiffs have been instructed doesn't remove liability for the bailiff costs. </p> <p>Happy days eh? Can you not obtain something from DVLA confirming date ownership transferred? Might save even more grief. </p>
