I was travelling behind a young female driver in a white/off-white Vauxhall Corsa NJ61 YKO this morning at around 8.45am. She kept putting her foot down, getting right up the bumper of the people in front of her then slamming her brakes on, backing off and repeating it. She then decided to fling her cigarette out of the window as she was in a 50 zone, swerving and braking as she clearly couldn't fully control the car as her arm was out of the window! She then nearly went into the back of someone at the roundabout, almost stalled again as she tried to pull away when it was eventually clear. As we then approached and entered the 30 zone leading to Quorum Business Park in Benton, again she kept putting her foot down then braking suddenly. We sat in traffic on this stretch of road for a few minutes and she constantly checked something in her lap, presumably a mobile phone and barely kept her eyes on the road. Unfortunately the dashcam didn't pick it up but it was obvious what she was doing. Very careless driving.
Ok please share far and wide people. It doesn't matter where you live. This is as important to people in the midlands as it is in Cornwall.
As some of you know yesterday the Gunnislake community on the Devon Cornwall border came together to help bring about the arrest of these two Eastern European gentlemen who were basically taking scrap without asking the owners.
Unsurprisingly they are denying most of the thefts and have been released pending investigation.
Now the police did tell me that they would be extremely stupid to re offend whilst investigations are pending because they would be much more likely to be remanded.
However stupid is all around us. I very much suspect they will start again. Either in Cornwall or elsewhere.
Police tell me that they are from the West Midlands area. The van was apparently fully road legal.
They may change the van. But their appearance will remain similar.
I've attached some photos below that I've dragged off a couple of other posts.
Please if anyone sees them, pay attention to them without attracting attention to yourself.
If they are committing crime try and record it even with photos.
AND REPORT IT TO THE POLICE!!!! Don't put the photos on fb without calling it in.
Cctv is brilliant if it's available. The police assure me that it's very useful. They have some cctv footage of them stealing and it's undeniable.
Parks in stupid places where emergency services should be then threatens and abuses people who park in the same area. Very angry and aggressive person.
Parked in my allocated parking space (Thornaby). I pay for this space as it is included in my rent. Not happy! Go use visitors parking like a normal person!
Another idiot who can't drive or park - do these morons get their licence from the back of a cereal packet??? Blocking access is illegal, what if your family needed help from the emergency services but they couldn't get to you???
DON'T FORGET IT'S NOTHING PERSONAL YOU ARE ON YOUTUBE DUE TO YOUR DRIVING!
TAXI DRIVER ON HIS MOBILE FORGETS THAT HE IS DRIVING A MOTOR!
