I don't see anything wrong with it, they don't identify the driver or car do they?

Wot time did he finish work?
I know two people from years gone by that got stopped breathalysed after drinking in the pub all night and passed the test

I’ve been tested in the past and they hand the tube you blow in back to you
I used to have mine hanging from the rear view mirror

Nothing like hearing them say zero after thinking they got a drinker

Promoting that a crime has not been committed?

"we woke up this family at 5 am and dragged the husband into the street to ask him if he is a paedo, he said no"

"Be warned, if you are a paedo that could have been you :oh:"

Makes me pleased not to live in Scotland!

Can also only assume that he works nights and had his pint at about 3am

The two are not comparable at all fgs :laugh: All they're doing is promoting the message that drink driving is bad and you never know if you're going to be over the limit so no drink is the safest option. Chances are that photo wasn't even from a barely passed breathalyser test

He is Scottish so he is lying about having one pint or he has a job:joker:

But the man wasn't drink driving, he had one pint which is fine.

Margaret (67) went to the shops and bought a new bra in M and S and paid for it and came home, we broke down her door and searched her whole house until we found the receipt

IF SHE HAD STOLEN IT SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN ARRESTED AND WENT TO JAIL

Think on Bra thieves we will find you and batter you and send you to jail :mad:

Again not comparable. They didn't break down this guys door did they? I presume he was pulled over in a random check which they are entitled to do, like the way the have speed traps and checkpoints to check you have a drivers license and insurance etc?

So they could post "we pulled over this young lady 18 in a 12 plate Fiat 500 and found she was doing 35 IN A 40 MPH LIMIT - she was a mere 5 mph below BREAKING THE FKNG LAW the devious little BITCH"

think on new woman drivers we are watching you and your drag racing ways

where does it end?

(I will tell you where, catching criminals and not harassing law-abiding citizens )

the real point is that alcohol affects everyone differently, dependent on a whole range of factors. The limit really doesn't matter, you should never drink and drive

That's a very hyperbolic version of the tweet the Police posted LT. But anyway, what Bots says below

Exactly, no idea why not breaking the law is a big deal or needs a tweet

Police 2024 are a joke

Should be 0 tolerance really given different amounts of alcohol affect people differently

Look at this man. He didn't break the law. So.... think on.
