The police have always been representative of the public they serve.
Going by the standard of English generally, often here too, why would one expect the police to be any better than the general public.
On a side note. I do remember that about 30 years ago, when the police introduced multi-choice for the entrance exam, replacing the previous written answers, they found after a short time that some officers could barely read and write and they had to provide remedial classes.
Sums it up. The little pratt of a PCSO I had recent dealings with could have done with some remedial classes. On the intention to prosecute paperwork not only did he misspell the name of the street where the driving offence(s) were alleged to have taken place he put it's position as 5 yards from junction with x road when it was more like 50 metres. Common sense prevailed and they dropped proceedings but armed with Google Earth and Google Maps photos I would have roasted him in court.Originally Posted by johncar54
Well done for getting away with itI'd have loved to have been in the public gallery watching you defend yourself, the prosecution and bench would have been nervous wrecks after cross examining you
It's Meters not METRES . It's really terrible when the police can't spell correctly !!!!!!.
The metre (British spelling) or meter (American spelling)
You like potato and I like potahto, You like tomato and I like tomahto
Potato, potahto, Tomato, tomahto, Let's call the whole thing off
