'Correct me if I am wrong........... Under existing laws, UK police can only carry out a breath test if they believe the driver has been drinking. '

No, Thats one of 3 reasons.


'If you think BJCC the "officer" (ha!) made a wise decision by using such pathetic evidence from an "informant" then I think you have been badly misled........... an ex-copper yourself? Pheww.'

Did I say he made a wise decision? No, I did not, nor did I say he didn't.

You jumped to a conclution, rather like this passenger appears to have done. I don't know I wasn't there. I presume nor were you, so think of it another way, how do you know he didn't have good reason to test?

Before you go jumping in with suggestions of sueing, think about the next time someone sees a house being broken into and thinks 'I wont ring the police, it might be innocent and I'll get sued.'

Runway 31, it may well be true, and in spite of the scare mongering on here, perhaps it isn't newsworthy.
