Oh dear, it just gets worse doesn`t it!
Outie was arrested by the Traffic cops and taken to ..............?????? Swinton! they were shapless.
And who thought I was exagerating at the amount of cop cars sent for Mr O?????? from where? Swinton! look at the size of that lady and how many were despatched to deal with her......its a joke!
perhaps if they wen`t so extravagent on silly things they could have afforded to bive Man U the welcoming parade they deserved last week.

I think in your shoes, I'd be adding my response to that quoted piece, Opas. It seems that the Greater Manchester police feel they need at least 10 officers to do anything then?

I don't think it was a case of being able to afford a victory parade, it was more a punishment for previous bad behavior, wasn't it ?

Opas
Just read all of this which is a little concerning - glad that they did not then try adding a bogus charge to try to justify themselves.
Should you go for compensation - should you be locked up for three days when you have done nothing wrong?
As for when the car entered the UK - are there not number plate reading cameras just outside the ports and they must save the numbers read.
At the least they need to refund the car pool charges.
Also perhaps they have shown such ignorance as stating that green cards are not valid if you work in the UK.
It is obviously up to you but unless a fuss is made then the police will just sweep this under the carpet and carry on.
I dare say Mr O is a little concerned about travelling to the UK for work.
Do give an update on this.
Perhaps this should also provide a lesson to some of those who leapt to wrong conclusions and must have caused you even greater concern.

Let me assure you that this will not be swept under the carpet.
It is in the hands of the IPCC and as such at the momment everything is in mid air.
He is not at all put off by all this as he has followed the law as it is written to the letter, and not as it was construed by a Traffic cop who obviously woke up halfway through a training session.
We know that our car can be tracked through the UK , it has been proven before with other cases, but if the police were not prepared to phone the Ins Helpline on the back of the green card then they are not going to put themselves out to prove date of entry......the onus is on US or Joe Public!
He has contacted various MPs and the Home Office as well as Euro MPs and had various responses.
The funniest thing we have done out of all this is to contact the car pool company who painted the acc no on the bonnet of our car, and has taken 2 car washes and a T Cut to get off, and ask them to send the monetary equivallent to our chosen charity........Shelter, which tickled us as he was also locked up as he couldn`t provide a UK address![Woot!
