So basically nothing has changed?..... whether you write fax or email the concept is the same?:

The time taken is now minutes/hours rather than days weeks - effectively it's instant.

What a waste of police time and resources watching for lane hoggers.....

Not just lane-hoggers .....

The Department of Transport has not yet released official guidance on which types of driving will attract fines.
But police are expected to focus on situations involving slightly aggressive and inconsiderate driving, such as:
- Driving too close to the vehicle in front
- Failing to give way at a junction (not requiring evasive action by another driver)
- Overtaking and pushing into a queue of traffic
- Being in the wrong lane and pushing into a queue on a roundabout
- Lane discipline, eg needlessly hogging the middle or outside lanes
- Inappropriate speed
- Wheel-spins, handbrake turns and other careless manoeuvres
