Recently the old bill, wouldn't let me shift a broken down bus, that was in a dangerous situation, they we're very short with me, and told me to stop holding up traffic. I was tempted to point out I was offering to move the hold up, but I thought better of it, and carried on my way.

Spooky:
About 2 years ago I moved a coach off a roundabout for Plod, and yes, I did make a point of asking the driver if he had any air left for the parking brake before trying to pull it! :roll:

Apparently these days even they (Plod) aren't supposed to move such vehicles, due to intervention by the Safety Nazis.  So the country grinds to a halt because some Shiney A**e says it's 'Unsafe to move a vehicle to a safe location, except by a dedicated Recovery Vehicle' ... :x
