Creamy, actual prosecution MAY be avoided by the use of a threat (to prosecute). That is of course a sleazy cheats way of obtaining compliance that yes I have directly witnessed.
I took the appropriate action (and avoided any involvement of the legal fraternity) under the circumstances and then had the particular officer 'removed'.
No names or the circumstances will be mentioned, I still to this day cannot believe the pettiness and the ultimate stupidity of the officer concerned to have even embarked on the course he chose.
