The guy that took the pic must get second prize for not photographing the number plate!

Number plate KC 06 GUH is in article in newspaper

I don't know what the fuss is about. The guy was only doing 65, so the police won't be interested.

Driving without due care and attention surely ?

What a Mammary Gland !

It's had a lot of coverage so it will be interesting to see the outcome.

The KC part of the registration means the car was registered in Luton, a suburb of London. Don't normally see that prefix in Scotland.


What an idiot!

Agree that this guys actions are indefensible but society is going down a rocky road if we are going to publish snapshots of folks behind the wheel which only shows a split second of what may well have been happening!
Photo you mid sneeze and it might look like you are sleeping at the wheel, tilting your head back to get the last drop out your water bottle could look bad etc etc

So for a split second he just picked up a gaming machine, booted it up and started the game! Hardly comparable with a sneeze. The Op took the pic precisely because it wasn't a split second inattention.

The problem is, if people don't know how stupid they are being, then it should be brought to their attention. It the only person he could kill is himself then fine, but he could take lots of others with him.
