Without wishing to incriminate myself, a road was closed because of flooding to the depth of several millimetres (and a couple days when it was completely dry) and the Police were issuing tickets.

Completely pointless in a Jobsworth sort of way - apparently the council only opens or closes roads during normal working hours: i.e. Monday to Friday.

thats daft :| surly passing a road closed sign means enter at own risk  :twisted:

Common sense- if Plods there watching you- don't go through. On the other hand- if the coast is clear........

There's too much of this 'nanny state' stuff going on.

Landyman:
That's ok if you can see the other end of the road.  [-X This one being refered to has a bridge and bend in it so you can't see the the plod's untill you have entered the water. :-k

Landyman:
I think the fines only apply if there is a police sign as well as the road closed sign. I have never seen them nicking people at the Offord's So I play there instead now. :lol:


This is the £30 Fine one in question


This is the road between Buckden and the Offord's No Old Bill here.
