 A S172 Question- Speeding and Naming Driver - Bromptonaut
Pavlovian reaction: An automatic response to a condition or stimulus:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_conditioning

The presence of a ticket elicits Pavlovian response in the hire company where they blame the hirer even if, as in this case, that is not the appropriate reaction. Cannot remember where I first heard it but Mrs B, a scientist, was familiar with it from before we met and it's always been part of our household vocab.

Why they delivered it late evening rather than next morning I've no idea. We thought just operational convenience.

If driver was on a 'frolic' then that might be another complication.
