Re: Notice of Intended Prosecution :( f*ck!

So what was the outcome? or is it still to be decided? If they offer you points and a fine with no court appearance, take it FFS! Speaking from experience, the websites saying what you can expect, are based on the magistrates guidelines .... the big clue here being Guidelines . The magistrates are f...

Re: tyre repairs..

I agree Jim, I have heard of those cone affairs letting go before and would hate to think that saving a £100+ caused anyone an off. Maybe there's some statistis somewhere on the web about repairs gone wrong. Even 'proper' vulcanised repairs can fail, so by far thye best option is to replace as soon...
