Do we really care? You you? I Don't!
So a person was charged with speeding, and he happens to be a member of the England team. So what.
Does that make him less of a human being? Less normal? Less able to play football.
No, it justs means he got caught!

Yet again the motorists get screwed
Another stealthy way of getting yet more money out of the hard working people, without raising taxes yet again?
The government is now considering, so that means getting ready to do it anyway, charging a levy on EVERY fine issued to motorists, whether issued by a court (which happens now anyway) or by fixed penalty or roadside on the spot fine.
So everyone would have to pay an extra £15 on every fine, supposedly to help those that have suffered from the crime(s). So who gets it from a speeding offence that no-one has suffered because of?
Good old labour, take yet more money from the people when they are struggling in the recession as it is

More proof that all they want is money
An old lady has been issued with a speeding ticket for her mobility scooter!
Isn't it fantastic, give them a scooter and all of a sudden they can drive fast! haha
Trouble is, it was miles from her home, she was in hospital, and the scooter has a max speed of 8mph.
The police had photographic evidence.
Just shows that they don't actually check anything before issuing the fines, just take the number plate, send the fine and rub their hands with glee whilst waiting for the cheque!
If they had bothered to type the number plate into THEIR computer it would have told them the registered vehicle didn't match the one in the picture, saving time, money, hassle and embarrassment.
To much to ask though I guess!
