What is wrong here?
Perhaps I should start a competition … but sadly, there is no prize 
This is a Nottinghamshire Police vehicle, parked on double yellows, while his mate goes into Sainsbury’s. If you or I did this, and we’re spotted, then we can expect a ticket. If on an emergency call, then fair enough, but for their convenience while shopping ….. no.
You might consider it petty of me, but I have made and official complaint. Like most folks, in the past, I would have just let it go, that’s the police for you. But the links below, show an increased belligerence in dealing with photographers and I have hundreds of other examples. They show that I might have been arrested in the attempt to shift blame. I might have been assaulted, my camera kit seized as ‘evidence’ with months of arguement, to get it back. So if this is the atmosphere, then I think we should all note these kind of matters and do something about it, until ‘they’ stop being so bloody awkward to us. So there!!!

Interesting. If the licence plate is readable I would have thought police records would show who was driving the vehicle at the time the picture was taken.
If an offence has been committed an ordinary road user and owner of a vehicle that has allegedly committed an offence is required to state who was driving the vehicle at the time if it wasn’t themselves, and it is an offence to fail to disclose who was driving.
I hope the number plate is readable…

good to document these things – they seem to think the law doesn’t apply to them
