    Interesting article, the video is pretty eye-opening as well.

    Not easy to get to a motor tax office if there's a cyclist blocking the way. All the cyclist had to do was ram into the back of a parked car and the motorist would have been able to sort out their tax liability in jig time. Some people can be so selfish. :eek:

    Maybe a result. Maybe a gentle tap on the wrist - "I say, steady on, old chapette".

    Not really a result, until conviction or otherwise. A charge is progress (and definitely more than would happen here!).
