About time he got prosecuted. He's got away with things too long.

I admire david beckham for lots of reasons but it still astounds me how stupid he can be ,

I posted this in 'Todays Joke' in the Benz Bin hours ago, as it was more appropriate

 

[daibevan]

Couldn't remember doing it on that day suggests he does it all the time. If you just took a chance once you'd remember.

Where's Mr Loophole when you need him!

You see people dip their heads into their phone in traffic all the time. The lad that used to live next door is a copper, he said that he saw loads of people on their phone going to & from 'work' but funnily enough never saw them when driving his 'company car'


(I have seen a copper do the same as Beckam though, and when he met my eye I shook my head ... his look said f*** you)

In his defence other high profile
people have got off with worse.
But he’s caught and its a fitting punishment as a fine would have meant nothing to him

....

he was fined .... He was also fined £750, ordered to pay £100 in prosecution costs and a £75 surcharge fee within seven days.

though he probably had that in his wallet

Loose change to him. Lol
It will be sore not being able to drive BUT
He can afford a chauffeur, so maybe not so painful.

That would have involved using my phone .....

 

[Frontstep]

Aren't some forces accepting dashcam videos as proof of people using there phones whilst driving.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if he didn't sneak out in one of his fleet clad in dark glasses and hat.
That would be a very valuable set of pictures if caught by some enterprising person.

I think I'm going to get the front facing one then, there are a few idiots that do this where I live, and have no car about other drivers. I need one that is not too big as well, don't want to be too obvious!

I could've done with a rear facing camera along with front facing camera last week as a d1ck head came up my inside on a normal 2 way road and then drove about 2" off the car that had just been in front of me. I really really wanted to push him over into the kerb but resisted .... it'd have scratched my paint work D1ck head then performed some outrageous over takes further up the road.
