From the title you can guess this is clearly going to be a rant!!
On Saturday I stopped for a second in a 'Yellow box' as the cars in front unexpectedly stopped.
Sure enough today I received a fine in the post from Brent council! A quick internet search highlighted concerns by the likes of the RAC, that as enforcement for these has been passed to local council's there could be a massive increase in the number of fines issued. Sure enough the scum who delight in increasing council revenue will now enforce these in an utterly unfair and gratuitous manner! Another example of the motorist being the easy target!!
Part of me thinks I should contest it, but everything is so massively stacked against you, like everyone else I will just end up paying the reduced £65 fine. However I will be one of the last to give in and use the appalling excuse for public transport, or get a s*dding bicycle like the authorities want.
Rant over, and I have to say I don't feel any better!
