I can't believe that.
What sort of lowlife scum takes pleasure in being an absolute prick.
Fair enough, maintain the standards of the law and protect the public in general, but exactly what do the police achieve by inconveniencing people for no reason?
I would be fuming and not let that one go. Comes down to private property vs implied access and the fact that a registered vehicle must be roadworthy.
Anyway- if he does not want to pursue it further, fair enough, would take a lot of effort/time.
