RonJeremy Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 In the Netherlands this actually leads to fines, agree with Berberis though, British drivers tend to lack in confidence when it comes to filtering properly. How do the Dutch drive when they are driving German cars? Are they fine, right up until they buy a car from over the border? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a careless driving offence here since 2013. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are not even enough police to catch people driving 30 (count em, 30) miles the wrong way up the motorway FGS. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leicestershire-37834668 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geared Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 That is pretty shameful, you don't get the feeling there is much remorse from the forces involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumeably their shift was over, so they went home... Working time directive and all that nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
