A very old friend of mine was foolish to drink and drive. He was supposed to be staying with a mate but at 4 o'clcock in the morning he couldn't get into the flat and so drove home.
Double the legal limit.
No excuses. He's 45 year old professional - just recently "retired" as he's financially independent - and he knows better.
The fine?
£200.
He a good mate and whilst I don't wish motoring fines on anyone this simply isn't enough of a deterrent?
£200. Its nothing to him.
The 12 month ban will hurt, and rightly so. But £200.
Pathetic.
Any views?
