Dangerous driving
Dangerous driving
Saw this on the news this morning and was a little confused, can you not already get a fine for dangerous driving?

It's stupid though, why get a ticket for undertaking but not for hogging a particular lane creating the opportunity for undertaking? If I ever got done for that I'd be taking it straight to court
pathi just think of all those people sorry loonatics on that strech of a13 or what ever road it is you use you'll have it to yourself if you can behave lol
The wife has done a lane hogger before after watching 5 people under take them...inpropper use of lanes or something like that..

It's gives the police too much power imho.
What's stopping him from saying 'you accelerated too fast' so here have 3 points.
In principal I agree with the concept, it's used all over the world effectively .. but I have to agree with Stav, for the UK, I can only see this becoming a money spinning replacement for the camera system and a huge powertrip for the ego tripping copper.

parthiban That's a good point actually, it's suddenly at the policeman's discretion as to what constitutes dangerous driving whereas previously they would need to be more careful if it is referred to court.
