high ranked policeman caught speeding

<< < (5/5)

Nah, he should spend the next 42 days polishing all the speed cameras in South Yorkshire, and when they are sparkling, he should invest in one of these interesting protective covers for index number plates when next on holiday in Wales

Possible, but I doubt he would get fired. If you put the indignation to one side and think of the financial implications.
He is extremely highly trained and it has cost the tax payer a lot of money to train him. Does it make sense then to fire him?

Before I get a barrage of 'sticking up for his own' etc etc, I'm saying that is what may happen. It doesn't mean I agree with it.

I think it's the 42 day ban that's rankles, I'm sure evryone else caught doing 90mph gets a 12 month ban - would be interesting to find out.

Also £350 is probably the sort of amount he loses down the back of his sofa - hardly a hardship.

I think he's got off VERY lightly indeed, plus the tax payers of S Yorks now have to pay for a driver to cart him around for 42 days, how many others would have an employer do that for them after being banned for speeding?

I think he should be put back on front line duties for 42 days - or probably nights around our S Yorks cities. That would be a better use of our tax money plus the money we have already spent training him - as LSP pointed out.
